Summer Cup Round 4 Results

Tuesday 16th April

Fourth Round of the Summer Cup

Dave Ireland continued as the only player on 100% winning his game against Kaan. Dave Filer continued his good form winning against John Conway and setting up a match against Dave Ireland in the next Round. There are also still a number of players unbeaten in the Cup - Roy Watson, Ed Goodwin, Sam Cotterill, Bava, Mike Johnson, Stan Whitmore.

Margarita had a good win against Paul Sweatman and is making a strong challenge for the U120 Trophy.

Could I remind all players we are having a break for Easter so no matches next week. (The club will be open for friendly matches)  The next round will be Tuesday 30th April.

Summer Holidays & Upcoming Dates

Just a reminder to all club members and anyone who would like to join Coventry Chess Club, we are open over the Summer for Friendly matches on a Tuesday.

Last week we had many members playing along with a number of potential new players so there are plenty of friendly games to be played. - All good practice for the New Season.

Here are some dates for your diary over the next few weeks: -

September 6th - AGM & Summer Cup Presentation - plus Membership fees due.

September 13th -  EGM for League. New Constitution to be approved. 

September 27th - First matches of the season.(Divisional Cup)

British Chess Championships and Notes from League AGM

Check out the latest game from the British Chess Championships.

FM C Storey v GM D Howell


At the League AGM a proposal was put forward to stop issuing any more trophies to Winners or Runners up in the League or KO Cup due to lack of interest in holding the cups or trophies. Mike Johnson has asked for any feedback on this proposal.

It was confirmed that Kenilworth will be entering a team into the First Division next season.  Chelmsley Wood it seems will continue to play in the third division despite defaulting their last 3 matches of the season.

Whilst University continue to cause issues it was felt that excluding them from the Divisional Cup and KO Cup had reduced the number of defaults quite dramatically.

Dave Filer announced that the ECF have increased the Bronze, Silver and Gold memberships. I have copied the new rates below from the ECF Website.

Membership categories		1 year (expires 31 August 2016)	3 years (expires 31 August 2018)
Bronze	Adult	£15.00	£45.00
	Junior	£11.00	£33.00
Silver	Adult	£22.00	£66.00
	Junior	£16.00	£48.00
Gold	Adult	£32.00	£96.00
	Junior	£26.00	£78.00
Platinum	Adult	£60.00	£180.00
	Junior	£60.00	£180.00

League AGM

The league AGM will be held on the 28th  July 2015 at Massey Ferguson. 7.30-8.00pm start.

All club members are welcome to attend.

If you wish to add anything to the Agenda let Mike Johnson know.

Friendly matches will continue as normal for those who just wish to play chess.
