Nancy Elder winner
#1
Congratulations to 13-year old Declan Shafi of Castlehill CC who beat Ian Brownlee of Lanark CC in the national final.

From what I have heard the game was entertaining and played in a competitive and sporting spirit. If I can get a copy I'll post it here.

The Nancy Elder tournament remains alive and kicking

Thanks go to Stirling Chess Club for hosting the game.

Well done Declan. Deffo was a good turn out for the Elder this season.

Has the MacIssac final been played, and who is in it?
