Paul Mayer Wins U1450 Championship

Congratulation to Paul Mayer on winning the U1450 Championship. He only needed  a draw against Jan Oldham in the final round to seal the Championship but, in the event, a win a put him a point ahead of Ric Dawson in 2nd place.

Tom Gerrard Takes The Lead In Club Championship.

Tom Gerrard beat Roy Evans in the 4th round of the Club Championship last night, maintaining his 100% record. He now leads Tom Dove by half a point going into the last round. In another 4th round match, Ian Maskery beat Damian Oldhan.

H E Atkins Memorial Congress

Club Championship Results

There were 4 games played in the 4th round of the Club Championship last night, with Tom Dove beating Larry Hayden, Richard Vann beating Patrick Buckley, Les Fancourt beating Ollie Fordham and Neil Roberts drawing with Paul Mayer. Tom Dove now leads the field with 3.5/4, but this may well change after Tom Gerrard and Roy Evans play their 4th round game.

Fixture Upload Complete

I have now completed the upload of the Ashby 3/4/5 fixtures to the Club Calendar.

Ashby 2 Beaten At Market Harborough In Harrod Cup

Ashby 2 were beaten 4.5 - 3.5 by Market Harborough 3 in the Harrod Cup last night. We won the first round of games by 2.5 - 1.5 but slumped badly in the second half, losing 3 of the 4 games. The only bright spot of the evening was Steve scoring 1.5/2 on top board. This result leaves us in second from bottom place, but we have avoided the Wooden Spoon as bottom Club Loughborough have a vastly inferior Game Point Difference.
