Presentation Evening 14/06/12

This year the Deputy Mayor of Tonbridge and Malling, Councillor Howard Rogers was in attendance to present trophies to the prizewinners. First however, there was one game being played to decide the winner of the Challenge Cup.

This game was being played in isolation between George Hollands and Rob Thompson with the moves being transferred to FIDE Master Steve Giddins in the main club room where he analysed each move for club members and answered any questions they had about the game. This was an exciting game made all the more interesting and informative for members by being able to look at alternatives moves before they were played.

A hard fought game ended with a win for George. The Deputy Mayor then presented trophies to the following winners:- "A" league George Hollands, "B" league Bob Fenn, "C" league Brian Stock, "Speed Chess" George Hollands, "Most Improved player" Hugh Broadbent, "Challenge Cup" George Hollands, "Best Game" David Lettington.

This has been an excellent season for Snodland Chess Club, because in addition to the above David Fowler and his team won the Harvey Cup competition and Nick Allen and his team won the Intro Cup in the Kent Chess Association inter club competitions. Well done to all who took part. Report by Bob Fenn The Deputy Mayor presenting George Hollands with the Speed Chess Cup.
