Cats Chess Back in Action
The Caterham Chess 1st team (Nikita B, Ivan B, Artem S & Nico W) faced a fierce challenge in their first match back post Covid, playing in a South of England tournament in the big hall at Wilsons School. The time control was ten minutes each with five seconds increment on the clock. Initially matched against Tiffin’s school, the Caterham team suffered a 3-1 defeat only with Nico W on board 3 securing a convincing win. The next couple of games were also tough with some difficult draws and losses.
Finally, in the last game of the day against Wilson’s team, Caterham secured a smashing 4-0 win. A great way to finish a long week! The team finished a creditable seventh in their group of 14 and look forward to future challenges next term.
A massive thanks to Mr Q for organising it all.
