Congratulations to the Hamilton Boys High team and coach Graham Nolan on coming third at the national secondary school chess championships. Club stalwarts Max Michaeal Nathaniel and Eushin came clear third behind Macleans and Auckland Grammer. The team lost to Macleans 3-1, had 2-2 against Auckland Grammer and Mount Roskill, and beat Kings and Avondale, all of which had been seeded in the top six. The result augurs well for next year as all four players will still be at school, and all are making steady improvement in their chess based on club rankings.
Hamilton Chess Club 
Thanks for this Ian. Hamilton Chess club has really paid a huge role in our development and our success. Just a minor correction- I’m a year 12, so fortunately we will all be here next year as well.
Cheers!
