Some Past Players' Comments

 
Thoroughly enjoyed the event, good to have this one back on the Chess calendar. Lovely to catch up with friends and fellow players. Very well organised, spacious playing arena with good facilities. Arbiters first class not aware of any issues everything appeared to pass off smoothly. Very much looking forward. to the next one. Thank you for all your hard work.
