December 18 . Last club night until Janury 15 2003 . Festive spirit and cheer abound.
Last weekend, Saturday saw our club BBQ and trophy presentation and our eldest member Mike Dyer (5) and almost youngest Casey Barnard (4) took home 9 trophies between them for the year
Sunday we competed for the inaugral "Queensland Teams Chess Championships" . 7 teams from SE Queensland took part with Redcliffe triumphant 33.5/48 from Gold Coast 32.5/48 and Brisbane 31.5/48.
Our Juniors came second in the Junior Team event
Seniors scores in board order, Michael Cashman (2/6): John Myers (4.5): Tony Weller (4): Leo Wilkinson (4.5) : Nathan Davidson (5): Wayne Davison (4):Peter Paterson (3.5) .
Junior scores in board order, Casey Barnard (3.5/6): Elwyn Teki (5/6): Daniel Anderson (6/6): Sam Long (3.5)
The games were rapid - 30 minutes each and no game records are available although the following has been constructed post the event.

November 6 . Day after the Melbourne Cup with some good luck on the horses not being repeated across the chess board !
After 5 rounds we have 4 players on 4/5 , Micahel Cashman , Brian Thomas , Tony Weller and Nathan Davidson . Michael should meet Nathan next week and as Tony and Brian were paired in Rd.5 they will get opponents from a lower score group. It looks as if "forced " colours may skew the top pairings a little .
Mark Stokes having blown 5 (?)pawns managed to scramble a draw , whether he should have or not is difficult to comment on as no complete game record was available .
We lead with a missing game from round 4.

August 14 . Still no games due to "fastplay" . Next week a new tournament with scoresheets . The 30 minute "guillotine" tournament was won by Casey Barnard 6/6 with Sam Long best U1500 , both are juniors .
July 31 . This week we began the "Guillotine Rapid" specially arranged for those who do not like the added x seconds per move that DGTs give us . A lot of post game interest was shown in the game Stokes vs Leach with the question posed "what is better than the blunder by Black at move 18 ?"

Missing from llast week's report was the time tidbit from the game Michael Szabo vs Nathan Davidson (30 mins + 10 secs a move) game . When Nathan had used his 30 minutes Michael still had 24 . By the time Michael had ground out the win , he had 29 minutes on his clock.JULY24 . No games for several weeks and we were into "speed " tournaments (most members participated ) . The Club 2002 Lighting championship was won by Nathan Davidson (who is the second most consistent in-club 'time' user in normal games , often being in 'time trouble') . The rapid ( 30 mins+10secs ) Championship was one by Mike (don't like new fangled clocks)Dyer (also our senior player measured by membership years and age). Next week we will try to have the full list of trophy winners on our tournament results page . Next week sees the start of "Oldies Delight " tournament . This was intended as several 4 player round robin sections but historic inconsistent attendances will probably mean an all-in swiss type tournament of 2 games per night over 3 weeks .
JUN12 . Continued absence of two players left it impossible to pair all players in the Autumn Swiss A so 2 byes were necessary . Tournaments with small number of participants to get stronger games for all only works if players are true to their commitment . A few games follow. Winner of Swiss A was Tony Weller and Swiss B was a firdt tournament win for Andre Vink.

Stephen Solomon scored his second GP win of the year ( separated by a non GP win at Ballarat for 3/3 this year ) when he emerged as winner of the Peninsula Open with 6/7 followed by four players on 5.5 :- Jonathan Sarfati , Keven Duncan Khailmzahn Abylkassov and Toshi Kimura . Rd.5 leaders had a bad last day . Laird losing to Solomon and teenager Toshi Kimura whilst Stephson suffered the same fate against Sarfati and Solomon. Toshi's 5.5/7 made him the leader of the young brigade with Sam Long 4/7 best Cadet .
Our club night on May 8 was to have seen the start of a group of double round robins ( 4 per group ) but unavoidable future absences forced a change to two 6 round Swiss style tournaments with the higher rated players in the "Upper" (except young Craig Barnard who was given the opportunity to face stiffer foes) and the remaining players in the "Lower" . Seven games from the tournaments follow .

Apr.10. Tal Memorial rd.6 Casey drew with Mark Stokes(Mark was a piece up , Mark's scoresheet was not clear but if I get a clear sheet I will add next weeek)
A clear 1.5 point margin is Casey's cushion with 2 rds to go (Probable rd7 opponent is David Leach) looks to be this year's Tal winner.

Mar. 13 Tal memorial Rd.2 Upset of the round was Nicholas Murphy defeating Mark Stokes , calmly ignoring Mark's draw offer , a pawn capture that would have allowed stalemate and getting on with winning.
Tonight saw the return of Junior member Andre Vink and we welcome Ted Grunte (ex Melbourne Club Frankston)and had a visit from West Australian Dylan Duncan curently at UQ.

Jan 16 First tournament of the year . Still some players on holiday but 15 made their way to our new venue at Redcliffe High, with two year 2001 absentees making a welcome return. Your editor joined the "poor" scorsheet group but started the year well with a win against Tony Weller for the only Rd.1 upset .Some of the games follow.
