There have been no byes notified. If you want a bye let me know today (Monday) and I will re-do the draw, otherwise the round 2 draw will be as below. See you tomorrow night. Clocks will be started as soon as the boards are all set up
After a hiatus club ratings and club ladder have been updated to reflect the Summer Cup, and round one of the Club Champs.
Remember to let Ian know by Sunday night if you are going to miss a game so you can be awarded the bye. Clocks will start as near as possible to 7:15 next Tuesday, so don’t be late for round 2.
We have 27 hopefuls for the title of Club champion 2018. The first night produced some exciting and close games with honourable mention to Kevin who punched well above his weight in a match with Hilton. Kevin had a small but definite edge at one point. He sacrificed a piece to try and get a pawn through, but in the end the compensation was not quite enough. A lot of the older and more experienced members are going to succumb to Kevin in coming weeks. Beware!
