Thank you to Paisley Chess Club and Bearsden Chess Club for playing home-and-away friendlies with us in November and December. This was a valuable introduction to competitive, over-the-board classical chess for our new members, and a welcome return to inter-club matches for others. The results of the four matches have been published by Chess Scotland:
Paisley vs Govanhill (08/11/21)
Govanhill vs Paisley (15/11/21)
Bearsden vs Govanhill (30/11/21)
Govanhill vs Bearsden (06/12/21)
As we await news on the potential restart of league systems, we would be pleased to hear from other local clubs who are interested in arranging a graded friendly in early 2022. Those interested are warmly invited to contact Derek at secretary@queensparkchessclub.com.
Rhys McCrosson, Graeme McKinnon and Derek Rankine represented the club in the Renfrewshire Allegro Chess Congress on 12 December. The results are available here: major section and minor section.
