Junior Tournaments and match results
Cumbria Schools Chess League
Jamboree held at Trinity School on 22 June 2010.
Trinity were unable to attend the first jamboree at Lime House in November.
William Howard, QEGS Penrith, Ullswater CC and Kirbie Kendal were unfortunately unable to attend any of the jamborees for various reasons which will hopefully not obtain next year.
Lime House led after the first jamboree, Trinity won the second though Lime House still led overall.
The final one saw Trinity romp home, as both the others fielded depleted teams, and clinch this year's league title by one point. Not bad after missing the first one!

Trinity were unable to attend the first jamboree at Lime House in November.
William Howard, QEGS Penrith, Ullswater CC and Kirbie Kendal were unfortunately unable to attend
either of the jamborees. Hence Lime House are clear leaders of this year's secondary
school league. Congratulations to the team and their manager Mr Paul Adkins.
Do we want another jamboree this school year, perhaps in June or do we leave it for this year?
Will schools please contact me with suggestions for next year's league. I am happy to carry on as we are
and hope other schools can join us; or we can try and come up with a format that improves the chances of
more schools being able to take part.
Carlisle Under 9 Chess Championship
held at Inglewood Junior School on 6th March 2010
Thanks as ever are due to David Bird and the Inglewood team who made this another excellent tournament.
Accelerated Swiss tournaments, where as soon as players finish one game they are paired with a new opponent,
keep everyone busy and that applies to the organisers as well as the children playing. This one went as smoothly
as clockwork and the quality of chess from 7, 8 and 9 year olds was often very good, evidence of the amount of
thought and effort put in by the children and their teachers. Sometimes it gets very interesting as young players
can interpret the rules in quite innovative ways.
All those on 50% or more are invited to enter the Cumbria junior championships, to be held at Austin Friars St
Monica's School on Sunday March 21st. Hopefully they will all come and the county championships will be as
competitive as this Carlisle championship was.

Primary Section
This year’s competition drew an entry of 14 teams, half of them from Newcastle Royal Grammar School. Many Carlisle schools who used to be strong in the chess world such as Scotby, Cummersdale, Thursby and Caldew Lea did not enter and the Dumfries schools were also absent. Nevertheless competition was intense and the lead changed hands several times. After 3 rounds St Teresa’s from Heaton in the north-east had a slender lead with RGS A second, Stanwix and RGS E team in joint third. The leaders met in the fourth round and it was a fascinating match which RGS just shaded 2 ½ - 1 ½ and set up a final round where any one of five teams could go top. In the event Stanwix ran out of steam and RGS A beat them 4-0 to pull away from the rest and retain the trophy. Stanwix though did retain the cup for top Cumbrian team on tie-break from Kingmoor.
Secondary
Holders Greenwood Academy were unfortunately unable to attend this year’s event and Lime House also had to pull out so we were left with 7 teams, meaning five of the teams got a bye at various stages. William Howard took an early lead winning 3-1 against QEGS while Austin Friars drew with RGS A and Trinity drew with RGS B but after two rounds 1 1.2 points covered all seven teams. Friars won 4-0 in round 3 against RGS C to go into a narrow lead over RGS A but then crashed 4-0 to Trinity in round 4 to leave RGS leading from Trinity and William Howard in third place. trinity tried their best to win the trophy with a 4-0 win over RGS C in the final round but RGS A also won 4-0 against QEGS to retain their lead while Friars beat William Howard to clinch third place.
Overall it was a noisy but happy hall full of young players determined to play their best and do the utmost damage to the opposition but fully within the letter and the spirit of the game. Well done to the 90 or so players including reserves who took part and their teachers and parents who inspired them to spend their day concentrating hard on five one hour games of chess in between the free for all football, games of tag and seeing who could eat the most hot dogs.
If anyone missed out on their medals or certificates please let me know as soon as possible. Finally thanks to Johnny Wright, Richard Bandoni and Drew Millar for their skills and patience over a long and tiring day.

Thanks once again to David Bird and his team from Inglewood Junior School for organising
a very good tournament and congratulations to the young players who produced a lot of
excellent chess and played every game courteously and sportingly. All the hard work put
in by them and their coaches showed on the day. All players who finished with 50% and
above have qualified for the Cumbria Chess Championships which will take place at
Austin Friars School on Saturday March 13th.

Carlisle Under 9 Championships |
at Inglewood School |
Cumbria Secondary Schools Chess League
Jamboree held at Lime House School, Dalston on Friday 20th November 2009
Unfortunately this was the day of the floods and Kirbie Kendal School were unable to travel.
Trinity, William Howard and Ullswater had already found they were unable to take part so the
result was just two schools instead of six and a straight match between Lime House and
Austin Friars.
Unfortunately two of the Friars team had failed to get to school because of the
flooding so had to default board 8 each time. Nevertheless the standard of chess was good,
most of the games were very close and lasted near the full hour each time and Lime House
showed why they won this league last year by winning the first round comfortably.
Friars came back to shade the second round but Lime House carry a 3 point advantage into
the second jamboree, scheduled for February.
