Summer chess

It’s Summer but it’s raining so why not consider what the chess club is doing over the next few weeks.

  • Summer Specials:-

20th July – Callum Shields – “Variations”
3rd August – Steve Ledger – “Gambits”

For new members, these are themed chess evenings, led by one of our members. They have always proved to be fun, enjoyed by members of all abilities.

  • There’s still time to let Steve know (or comment below) if you’d like to attend the August Curry night.
  • A number of our members are attending the British Championships being held in Leicester between 20th and 30th July:-

British Championship – Toby Cox
British U12 – Ramsey Dairi
British U8 – Daniella Dairi
British O50 – Steve Ledger
British O65 – Paul Habershon
Weekend events – Mahmoud Dairi and David Cox

We wish them all the very best of luck. I will try to post updates as to their progress, hopefully with some insights from the players themselves. You can monitor progress directly via the championships website.
