Dear all
 
Summer tournament time is here again and there has been even more interest than last year! However as quite a few people have holiday commitments etc I have decided to take the following approach. I propose 4 teams of 4, with 3 of us being floating players, filling in for anyone not able to make a particular night. This will keep it down to 3 matches which will be easy to fit in, and all match games will hopefully be played on the designated evenings.
 
On that basis, I propose the following teams with the first named person acting as team captain:
 
Pooped Pawns            -   Richard McNally, Aron Buxton, Richard Buxton, Paul Stockwell
Knackered Knights     -   Wiatt Ropp, Peter Stiff, Stuart Calderbank, Daniel De Rosa
Raddled Rooks           -   Phil Bennett, Satpal Singh, Michael Caveney, Steve Henderson
Banjaxed Bishops       -   Andy Chown, Dave Bowie, Paul Davies, John Ziegler
 
Floating players: Dino De Rosa, David Charlton, Martin Szachniewicz
 
The dates for the matches will be as follows. Please let me know if you will not be able to make any of these dates and I will arrange for one of the reserves to take your places.
 
For each encounter, I have drawn both board positions and opponents at random (out of a hat).
