A bumper 27 members took part in this years Keddie Cup, and for the fourth season in a row, it was won by a junior. Congratulations to Idris Benwell! Idris's performance in the final against newcomer Harry meant that the winner was never really in doubt - especially when he picked up his Knight on g5 and confidently placed it on e7, delivering check and going on win the Rook on c8. Yes, the Keddie was its normal mixture of time trouble, illegal moves and chaos.
