IT WAS GREAT TO SEE A TURNOUT OF 31 JUNIORS COMING ALONG TODAY TO COME AND ENJOY CHESSS.

WE HAD NEW 3 NEW BEGINNERS – JONI/NICOLAS AND ARAD. PREVIOUS BEGINNERS CHARLOTTE/VINCENT AND AARON ALL CAME FOR THEIR 2ND LESSON. STEVE BAILEY OUR BEGINNER COACH DID REALLY WELL TO TEACH ALL THE BASICS AND WE HOPE THEY CONTINUE TO PROGRESS.

AZHAR SPENT 1 HOUR WITH JONI AND NICOLAS WHO ARE REALLY KEEN AND WE HOPE THEY WILL PROGRESS.

TONY OUR PUZZLE KING HAD THE LION SHARE OF ADVANCED PLAYERS – NOW A FULL COMPLIMENT OF 10 PLAYERS INCLUDING SAM AND NEIL WHO HAVE MOVED OVER FROM 2ND SESSIONS.

PAUL USED OUR DEMONSTRATION BOARD TO DEMONSTRATE THE VIENNA AND PONZIANI OPENING WITH JUNIORS FROM BOTH THE 1ST AND 2ND SESSIONS.

THIS WAS A GREAT OVERALL SESSION FOR FAMILIAR AND NEW PLAYERS AND TO SEE OUR LIBRARY CONFERENCE ROOMS FULL OF JUNIORS LEARNING AND PLAYING CHESS IS A REAL PRIVELAGE AND MAKES ALL THE EFFORTS REWARDING.

THE LADDER BOARDS ARE ALL LOOKING CLOSE AND INTERESTING AS WE PASS THE HALF WAY STAGE.

GOOD WINS FOR LATHUJAN/PETER/NICOLAS AND SEVERAL GOOD GAMES THAT FINISHED IN DRAWS.

PLEASE SEE THE LADDER BOARDS LEAGUE TABLES BELOW.

MANY THANKS TO ALL OUR COACHES – STEVE/PAUL/AZHAR/TONY AND NEIL FOR MAKING ALL THIS POSSIBLE.
