Snodland player David Fowler (pictured) is the new British Chess Champion for players graded under 140. David scored 4.5/5 and achieved a grading performance of 162, which is 26 points above his new grade.
Congratulations go to David for his success, which is well deserved. David's experience in tournament play enabled him to win his final round game with a strong attack after a lot of manoeuvring in a tense middle game.
Another Snodland player, Matthew Bunn, also excelled himself and was the runner-up in the U160 section and the Afternoon Open. Matt scored 4/5 in both competitions, with respective grading performances of 171 and 198.
Ben Spink scored a creditable 5.5/11 in the extremely competitive Major Open, which features many internationally rated players.
