Thank you to everyone who took part in the tournament.
Some terrific battles and a close-run thing for first place – congratulations to Barnaby who kept his nerve in the last round to win.
Results:
| 1st | Barnaby Wreford – 5/6 |
| 2nd= | Toby Appleton & Alec Hedger 4.5/6 |
Toby gets the consistency award for a second consecutive 4.5/6 and share of 2nd place.
We had several less experienced players competing, led by Louisa who finished on 3/6, and they were competitive against the stronger opposition gaining valuable experience.

Feedback on the event, good and bad, is welcome.
Sadly, chess over-the-board cannot resume at the Durrington Community Centre yet – the current regulations just leave me too many hoops to jump through to make it worthwhile. So the Worthing Knights will continue online, resuming Thursday 3rd September, and I will send out details soon.
