Ayr Congress
#12
This is not new, this has been a feature of Scottish chess for some time, but these talented junior haven't progressed beyond a certain point. Unless something has changed then I fear that Rishi and his contemporaries will go the same way.

To my mind there are a couple of things that could have changed.
1. We've had a pandemic and serious online chess has become a thing so this might overcome the deficiency in Scottish OTB events

2. With respect to the talented juniors of the past decade, Freddie Gordon is probably a class above them and he might act as an inspiration for a group of player to move forward.

I don't think either of those things are assured to happen and make a difference.

As I have said elsewhere, I think there are small things that lot of people can do which will ultimately be assured to make a difference.
