6th April, 98 players attended from Cumbria, Yorks, Wales, and Poland complementing local players and all enjoyed
a good days chess hosted by skem chess club. There were 3 Sections with £800 IN PRIZE MONEY.
The new venue, Skelmerdale Football Club Stadium, proved a success, meeting all our needs.
In 2009 we hope to expand by including an open section. Feedback to this on our web site
would be welcome.
Thanks to all who make it work, John Reid
