Eastbourne Schools Federation Chess Cup.
The Chess Tournament between Bishop Bell, Ratton, Willingdon and Hailsham Community College, took place at Bishop Bell in the Conference suite on Monday 6th December. The tournament took place between Periods 2 and 4. Participants started practicing at 10:00 but it wasn't until Periodd 2 that the tournament began. It was great fun (at least until I got knocked out). Everyone had a great time and most were eager to keep playing for the rest of the day. The winner was J Fallon from Bishop Bell, followed closely by J Langley (also from Bishop Bell). Well done to everyone for taking part!
