Lewis Cup - Hastings 1 v Snodland 1

The  Lewis Cup Snodland team lost narrowly to Hastings on Sunday 20 March 2011 and will be
unable to qualify for a semi-final place, the teams were:

Hastings 1                                  Snodland 1
192 Richard Almond   1-0        Ben Spink                   191

109 John Driver          1-0       Pete Hickey (117)       120
                                3.5-2.5

Another great win!

Snodland managed to score another win and put themselves into contention in the Stevenson Cup. A 3.5-2.5 win over nearest rivals Maidstone put is into third place (only top two qualify for the final stage) with a game in hand of the team above us. If we win the final match, we are guaranteed to get a Semi-Final spot.

Two very nice wins from Ben Spink and Chris Marshall, combined with a short draw for Zibby Koncki and long, drawn out escape from David Fowler just gave Snodland the edge.

Excellent result - Snodland vs Sittingbourne

Surely Snodland's best result of the season thanks to two excellent results from David Fowler and Chris Marshall.

Snodland player challenges Nigel Short

Snodland player George Hollands played Nigel Short in a simultaneous display at Coulsdon, things were going well for a long time..... But Nigel didn't get to become World Championship Challenger without being able to play pretty well. The game is below:

Match result

A very closely fought match was saved for Snodland by Zibby Koncki who scored a great win when the team was 3-2 down.

David Nicholls and Tyrone Jefferies stepped in as late replacements, for which we were very grateful. Although Snodland were slightly outgraded overall, some of the games has quite large grading discrepancies, but this only told on one of the boards.
