Congratulations to John Bradley (Omagh CC) and Gary Johnston (Bangor CC), joint champions of the UCU End of Season Quiz.

Congratulations to John Bradley (Omagh CC) and Gary Johnston (Bangor CC), joint champions of the UCU End of Season Quiz. Both scored 20/20. It was no mean feat given there were a couple of tricky questions. Also very well done to the runners up, Aaron Wafflart (Strand CC) on 19/20, Stephen Cullen (Lisburn CC) on 18.5/20 and Paul Anderson (Civil Service CC) with 18/20. Thanks to everyone who participated. We received lots of positive feedback on how enjoyable it was.

 

You all make the chess community what it is, thank you for keeping the heart of our chess scene beating loud during this lockdown. It is so heart-warming to know that so many of you are texting, emailing, ringing and playing each other online to keep the vital connection alive. Quite a number of our UCU members are extremely isolated at the moment and living alone so small things like running an online tournament or playing a correspondence game can actually make the world of difference.

Bangor Chess Club Captain Gary Johnston (username: BlueTheCat) is running weekly online rapid tournaments on LiChess so please link in with him if you would like to continue playing online. Please note these are private events, not official UCU events and Gary Johnston is in charge so he will need to know who you are to release the password. His next event is tomorrow from 7-10pm (Mon 20 April) https://lichess.org/tournament/YMy9zw6g
Keep looking out for each other, stay connected, keep interacting on the internet, keep sharing your love of chess and take care of each other in any small way you can, best wishes,
Brendan
Ulster Chess Union Tournament Director & League Controller
