The British Championships are in full swing now but the main
focus for CJCC was the U8s and U9s sections which have now finished.
Olga (3/6), Nina (4/6), Max (3/6) and Harry (3/6) all played
in the U8s and can all be very pleased with themselves. Harry deserves a
special mention for scoring 3/6 at the age of 5.
Nina (4/6) and Harry (2.5/6) also played in the U9s and were
joined by Harry’s older brother Jerry (3/6) and brothers Ethan and Max Yau
(both 2/6) who came along to the last CJCC coaching workshop.
These scores alone are excellent but Nina was also the joint
highest scoring girl in the U8s and U9s making her U8 and U9 National Girls Champion.
On behalf of CJCC many congratulations to Nina and all the other players. We
are very proud of you.
Below are a couple of photos of Nina in the playing hall and
(for balance) one of Jerry, Harry, Ethan and Max on the beach. Also one of
Ethan at the Gigafinal where he scored 4/6 to qualify for the Plate
competition.
