ALL ENGLAND GIRLS'

CHESS CHAMPIONSHIPS

gold finals 2007

 

The Gold Finals 2007, held in the perfect venue of Bramcote Hills Sports and Community College,
drew the 2007 All England Girls' season to a close.

The 30th June Championships were witness to fantastic chess and some unexpected results.
Competitors also had to battle against the curse of the M1 and dreadful weather conditions.

I hope that a great day was had by all and that I will see many more of you attend next year!

Huge thanks to the control team:
John Crawley, Sandy Lakhani and Michael Barnes.

Intellectual stimulation in between rounds.

In addition to their titles and trophies, section winners will receive a fantastic new Gold Final benefit:
10 hours of free top class coaching, courtesy of the English Chess Federation!
