We moved back to the top of B division temporarily after beating Bolton 2's 5-1 - well done everyone on a great result

Last night I was away playing football in Spain. The fort was held brilliantly by Pete, Paul. Sacha and Tuck Man Steve although as usual they did their best to make the cupboard as untidy as possible just to upset me. Back to normal lessons next week in the Hall.

Very pleased to inform everyone that we have been given funding to buy 2 x Chess Up 2s to help our beginner and intermediate players. Although some of our first team players seem to like playing against it too.

We have recently hooked up with another junior club from over the hill and have matches planned for 16 April at home and 29th May away. - should be fun.

Pleased to say that recently we have had a host of new members recently plus a few returners George, Shlok and Veer. We can always cope with more so feel free to invite your family and friends regardless of ability
