It's two years this week since Stirling chess club stalwart David Brodie died aged just 56. He remains much missed, so it was very good to see his daughters Marissa and Nadine at the club to present their father's memorial trophy to the current leading junior, Alex Brimlow.
David was a great encourager of keen young players and would have loved to have seen the recent surge in membership at the club, both in terms of juniors and adults.
It was great to see Alex receive the trophy - which will be contested each season from now on - and it was lovely to meet Marissa and Nadine again and to be able to recall happy memories of their father's years at the club.
