Yorkshire v Kent Match Update

 

Further to an earlier e-mail (see here) Steve Westmoreland gives an update on the ECF Under-1450 match as follows.

 

Dear all,

 

I have confirmed times and locations with the Kent Captain.

 

Date: Saturday 11th May

Start time: 1.30

Location: Paston & Gunthorpe Community Association

Hallfields Lane,

Gunthorpe,

Peterborough,

PE4 7YH

 

Board fee: TBC but costs are low as we are sharing a venue.

 

We will be joining other counties, who are playing at the venue in the u1850s and Minor Counties. There with be two Lincolnshire teams, Bedfordshire and Suffolk, alongside ourselves and Kent. 88 players in total.

 

The chap organising the venue is also a FIDE arbiter, which makes life a bit easier (not that I have had any disputes as Captain of anything). At present, we have 8 players saying yes and please keep the names coming in.

 

Kind regards,

 

Steve
