4NCL On-Line Season 4, Round 5

 

Round 5 was played on 19/10/2021.  Results of Sheffield-based teams were as follows.  (Results of all 14 Yorkshire-based teams can be found on the Yorkshire CA website here.)  Two games are included here: the only wins scored by the Sheffield player’s respective teams

 

In the first game, White collects a sack-full of pieces in return for his queen.  Actually winning such positions can take time, but in this case Black generously trapped his own queen and allowed it to be won back.

 

The second game, to quote Phill, was the first time he had played a “scintillating attacking game” in the event.  In the final position, any move by Black was going to lose a pawn, so Black (who has played for the Scottish Women’s Olympiad team), already a rook down, resigned.
