Horsham Chess Club

John Cannon: "After reading in the West Sussex County Times that Amy started playing chess when she was six, I chanced upon this photo of our two daughters in 1960 (Black appears to have captured one of her own pawns, when short of time!)."

Bernie shared this lovely picture she took of the presentations..

The British Championship finished today after 11 rounds, and Amy's excellent performance saw her take the British and English Womens Champion titles, as well as the U18 British Girls Champion title too...

Horsham 2 and Horsham 4 both won cups for winning their respective divisions this seasons - congratulations to both!

We are going to extend the season by an extra week - so 1 July will be the last week after all...there are still games to be had so enjoy :)

Just to confirm what was announced last Tuesday - there are no more HJCC sessions until we return for the new season in September...

Now that the MSL season is over the best individual performances of the season have been calculated and Horsham players were close to winning in a couple of categories...

As the season heads towards a close at the end of June, more results are coming in from the various club competitions...

The club's annual Lightning Tournament (10 seconds per move) was held last night, preceded by a junior lightning for the members of HJCC...

Congratulations to Richard Moorhouse who overwhelmed me completely to win the knockout plate last night.
