Christmas Holidays and 2019

CJCC has broken up now until Tuesday 8th January when we will kick off the UK Chess Challenge (badges, gold spots, furry creatures and all) with the older players.

Thank you to everyone who bought food, performed music and especially helped clear up at our Christmas Buffet Musical Extravaganza. It was great so many of our players were keen to get on stage to perform and share their non-chess talents with the club.

Good luck to our players at the London Junior Chess Championships this month.

Entry forms will soon be available for the next EJCA tournament (Sunday 13th January in Southend) at www.ejca.co.uk

Entry has opened at www.britishchess.co.uk for the British Chess Train and Play day at Brentwood School on Sunday 3rd March. Guest coaches Grandmaster Matthew Sadler (the UK's highest ECF-rated player) and Women's International Master Natasha Regan will join International Master Richard Pert and myself. This event is likely to sell out so dn't leave it too late!

I hope you all have a lovely Christmas and New Year.

Best Wishes
Robin
