May chess news

It was the younger half of the club this week. A couple of photos below (plus one from the previous week).

A busy week with the older players last week.

 Aarav, our youngest player, pausing mid-game againsy Shray.

Solan concentrating hard against Nye.

Prady received his trophy today for finishing as the highest-placed player in the UK Chess Challenge from the younger half (and second overall). John was Player of the Week.

Congratulations to Jixuan who was our best scorer at the EJCA Colchester tournament last weekend. Good luck to everyone playing at Brentwood this weekend (quite a few in their first tournament).

Finally welcome home to our former players Nina and Max who have just returned from the World Junior Championships in Turkey. Max scored 5/9 in the U9s. Nina 6/9 in the U11 girls to finish 7th.

Best Wishes
Robin
