  Jonathan Rowson and Cherie Booth Awards
Posted by: Linda McCusker - 15-01-2015, 10:46 AM - Forum: Junior Chess Chat - Replies (2)

I would like to say a huge congratulations to both Murad and Anna on being awarded the Jonathan Rowson and Cherie Booth Awards!!!!! Smile

The awards are thoroughly deserved. Both of these young people have worked hard on their chess for many years and are great role models for our up and coming juniors.

Today I was looking at the bid process announcement on the Fide website and wondered if folks felt we would be in a position to try and stage an important international adult or junior event in the foreseeable future?

Today Clement Sreeves passed the 2300 FIDE rating mark... A fantastic achievement! Great to finally see one our top juniors go through the system and make it into the titles! I know how hard he has been working at his chess, and this achievement is thoroughly deserved!

Hopefully onwards and upwards FM Clement Sreeves!
