Chess for Women and Girls

 

All England Girls' Chess Championships
Eastern Region, 16th February 2008

A calm day, with a lot of new faces and a great deal of chess talent.

Thank you to everyone who made the day such a pleasure:
especially Sandy, John, Michael, Kishan and Hyacinth
who kept everything running smoothly.

 

The day saw intense concentration but the girls also made some good friends.

 

The girls that John Crawley brought from Nottinghamshire played exceptionally well, and I expect to see more champions from his clubs.
