We fielded what might best be called an experimental team for our Surrey Centenary match at home to Kingston B, and the result was very much as expected.
- Levente Lencses (1525) 0:1 Jon Eckert (1818)
- George Milligan (-) ½:½ John Shanley (-)
- Mike Robinson-Chui (-) ½:½ Stephen Moss (1728)
- Ron Bilkhu (-) 0:1 Ljubica Lazarevic (1728)
- Julian Bedale (1098) 0:1 Adam Nakar (1660)
- Ranjit Uppal (-) 0:1 Jake Grubb (-)
Congratulations to George and Mike on excellent draws against strong opponents, and welcome to Ranjit on his debut in competitive chess.
There’s an excellent match report from Kingston’s captain (and former RJCC member) Adam Nakar on their website here.
