There was an
excellent showing from many schools, with a special mention to large contingents from Amherst in Sevenoaks and Dulwich Prep London. It was good to also welcome so many first time players.Some superb games of chess were played
at all levels and this reflected on the excellent training being provided across Kent by our wonderful team of coaches and parents.
Many thanks to Dulwich
College for accommodating us and also a big thanks to the large number of parents
who helped before and on the day.
Our next Grand Prix will be held on Sunday 14th April at The Schools at Somerhill, Somerhill, Tonbridge, Kent, TN11 0NJ, another beautiful venue. This event doubles as the Secondary Schools Championship and starts at 9 am. This will be the sixth GP out of eight for the 2012/13 season. As usual you can enter on line and we hope to see many of you there once again.
Also we wish our Kent teams the best of luck over the next few weeks.
