29 April 2019 - David Brodie Junior Trophy

Monday night saw the inaugural David Brodie Junior Trophy - an allegro competition for the juniors. Unfortunately, Gordon couldn't make it for the start of the competition, but did get a couple of games when Ross retired after round 4.

Time control was 12 minutes, with 5 second increment, for all moves.

Round 1
Idris 0 - 1 Alex
Douglas 0 - 1 Ross

Round 2
Ross 0 - 1 Idris
Alex 1 - 0 Douglas

Round 3
Idris 1 - 0 Douglas
Ross ½ - ½ Alex

Round 4
Alex 1 - 0 Idris
Ross 0 - 1 Douglas

Round 5
Idris 1 - 0 Gordon
Douglas ½ - ½ Alex

Round 6
Douglas 1 - 0 Idris
Alex 1 - 0 Gordon

Congratulations to Alex on his unbeaten 5/6, and winning the trophy! There were some very entertaining games played, especially Ross - Idris in round 2 when Ross fought back from a Queen down to gain equality, and Douglas - Alex in round 5, when, with a bit more time, I'm sure Douglas would have gone on to win. Well done all! Thanks to Dave and Jim for their support and organisation on the night.
