Manchester Chess Federation Founded 1890

The Junior 4NCL has restarted over the Board chess with its first weekend event at

Leamington Spa on 25/26 th September 2021.

In the past Manchester Chess Federation has entered two teams, one in the FIDE rated

Division A and one in ECF rated Division B. This year we had to withdraw the second team

at late notice because we have lost some of our players to other teams. We will continue to

offer places to children from any MCF clubs.

Manchester came 7 th and had to play four of the top five teams. This ensured that all our

games provided tough opposition.

I attach a hard-fought match between Tarini and Maxine Lacoult with an unusual opening

sequence. https://share.chessbase.com/SharedGames/share/?p=nOn8dG3CjZX5zoDBH+oBFK3Uz9YXf11iZWC3MMzQMEBlxNB2OijCY0YJb6cJ+l1A
