Wow! Two great results in two days!
Snodland beat Hastings in the U100 section of the National Club Championship to reach the final.
The team won 2.5-1.5, with David Lettington and Matt Bunn winning and David Fowler gaining a draw.
Matt Bunn scored a good win against the experienced Hastings player and David Fowler then achieved a draw against his young opponent.
This meant that David Lettington or Matthew Gazes only needed to draw to put Snodland through on board count. David's opponent had an opportunity to make a risky sacrifice, but decided to play safely and then grabbed a pawn which allowed David to make a counter attack that eventually gave him the initiative.
The following day Snodland beat Lewisham in the Kent County Chess Association's Harvey Cup to reach the final. The match was tied 3-3, but Snodland won on board count. The Snodland winning players were David Nicholls, Henry Williams and Matt Bunn. More details later....
