Snodland scored their first win of the season, with a convincing victory over Rainham by the score of 4.5-1.5
Matt Bunn was the first player to score a point with an extremely impressive win against Tom Stonehouse's. Matt played a strong Caro-Kann defence and had a very nice finish with multiple threats around Tom's king. Matt was very modest about his quick win, saying "Oh, it was mostly theory!"
The next game to finish was team captain Tyrone Jefferies, who scored a win over Martin Reeve. Tyrone is in good form this season and is picking up lots of points.
Despite being ill, Zibby Koncki scored a nice victory over Andy Waters. It was Zibby's first competitive game for the club, so he is now the proud owner of a 100% victory rate. Long may it continue!
Chris Marshall converted the match into a victory with a draw against Paul Giddins in a complex rook and pawn endgame.
Rob Thompson brought his win drought to an end with and excellent victory over Rob Springett, who is an extremely tricky opponent. Rob T had a material advantage for a long time but Rob S defended doggedly and it was one of the last games to finish.
Ben Spink had a long game against Martin Taylor, the Kent Champion, but wasn't quite able to hold the rook and pawn endgame where Martin had very active rooks.
Well done to the team who gave Snodland their first victory of the season!
