Amazing Chess Puzzle and Club Photos

George and Arthur created a brilliant chess puzzle today which they shared with the club. 

It is correct, smart and artistic and won them our Player of the Week trophies. 

Red is moving up the board and has a forced checkmate in two moves. Can you find it?

A busy week for the younger half of the club as you can see. 

It was great to welcome Leke, Lore, Jamie, Samuel, Misha, Zakariah, Musa, Olivia and Phoebe for the first time. 

Always room for more so do come and join us.
