Brown Jack Chess Club
West of England Championships 2008
Bev Schofield and Richard Hall have kindly provided a report with photos from the recent Easter event, which featured several Brown Jack players:
The Hall brothers had a very successful Easter Weekend in Exmouth. Dan & Josh played in the Open section. They both went into the last round on four points, just behind the two leaders. Dan won his game, finishing on 5 points and sharing second place, half a point off the winner (not a West of England player). Dan missed the West of England Trophy & the British Championship place on the THIRD count-back method! Josh lost his last game, ending on 4 but easily took the grading prize. Toby came second in the Minor (U125), behind a three-way tie for first place. Robbie Coats played in the Major (U160) and Jon Coats played in the Minor. They both finished with creditable mid-table positions, Robbie recovered well from a slow start.
