Club News

Hi folks,
It's been a while since I was in touch; don't want you to get bored!
As I'm playing away on 10/12 and 17/12 I won't see most of you for a few weeks, so have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,
As Wednesdays fall on 24/12 and 31/12, the club takes a break after 17/12 and re-starts on 7/1/09, with the return match between the B and C teams. If you are in the club on 10/12 or 17/12, can you please make sure that the management know,
Don't forget the Wrekin Congress on Sat 3/1 and Sun 4/1 at Madeley Court Sports Centre; entry forms can be printed off the Shropshire Chess website,
Our Shropshire A team had a hard-fought draw last week against champions Telepost A (and very nearly won),
The B team beat a useful Shrewsbury B team 3-2 to remain on target for promotion,
The C team continues to find life tough in division 2, losing to Newport B,
On the other hand, the D team is finding its feet in division 3, following up its win over Telepost C with a 4-1 victory over Newport Juniors. Wins came from Jason (again), Jamie (a first, well done), Andy and Darren (yet again his opponent was scared off and defaulted),
The B team's match against Wellington has been postponed from this Thursday,
Good luck to the A team away to Coddon and to the C team, at home to Shrewsbury C, both matches on Wed 10/12,
Can't think of a 10th item,
Iain
