SJC recently spent much more than £40 donating brand new equipment to three new junior clubs. It seemed unlikely to us that Chess Scotland were going to produce any such support and after the event CS were essentially silent about the donations. Our actions, I suspect, have saved CS much more than £40.
All of which supports my growing belief that this is all about affiliation and concomitant loss of SJC autonomy.
I am still waiting for Jacqui to get a substantial answer to the benefits SJC would acquire by affiliation.
Retaining most of our current autonomy for a £40 investment is not a persuasive argument. We would much rather spend any excess cash in our bank account helping grass roots juniors.
