What a fantastic weekend we all had. Great fun for all who attended and played friendlies.
A Great successful event. Wonderful to experience outdoor Chess at the Wolverhampton Show and to be a part of this huge event!
Thank you to all who turned up, helpers, players,the Wolverhampton show wouldn’t have been a success without members and key members such as Barry Lewis, Richard Dawson, Gordon Sands, Paul Walters and Steve Wilson (all subcommittee). All helped during the weekend as well as Frank Wood, Mike Townsend, Max Wooton, Bob Khoshnevis, Colin Haughton, Mike Steed. Ray Dolan of SCA did an excellent job on both days supporting us with promotion and playing public. Also Peter Broomhall’s attendance on Sunday much appreciated!
