A big thank you to Ben Larkin for taking on all comers in a simal at the pre-season social evening. Thanks also to Paul for organising the trophies, to Richard for organising the chess sets and to all those who took part and made an enjoyable evening.

Well done Ben for an impressive 11-1 score across all boards! Congratulations to Paul Budd who was the only player to claim a win.

Have a great chess season.
