The 2015-2016 LCCC League begins play! |
It
was a great start to the ‘real’ chess season (fall-winter – lol) with 15
players entering the league.
We
had two new players join LCCC and the league also
Welcome
Jay S and Dan W. It will also be Nick D’s first time in the LCCC league.
We
delayed as long as we could and tried to find a 16th person, but we
could not get there.
So
we went with a Five Team - Three Players
on each format. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
But
either way, great chess will be played and fun and learning will take place.
The
teams are (unless the team requests a name change):
Owls
- Mike N, Don J, Jay S
Tigers
– Tim R, Nick D, Sam T
Thunder
– Gene M, Luke S, Zack R
49’ers
– Ken T, Paul M, Tom H
Flyers
– Vince V, John R, Dan W
Good
luck to everyone – and enjoy the season!
The
first round got underway with the Tigers beating the Thunder 2 -1.
In
the other match, the 49’ers defeated the Flyers 2 – 0 with one game to play.
The
Owls got a bye and will play in the next round on Monday October 19, 2015.
That
night the Tigers have a bye.
The
teams and the pairings for Oct 19 are:
Thunder vs 49’ers
(W)
Gene M – (B) Ken Tack
(B)
Luke S – (W) Paul M
(W)
Zack R – (B) Tom H
Flyers
vs Owls
(W)
Vince V – (B) Mike N
(B)
John R – (W) Don J
(W)
Dan W – (B) Jay S
Remember,
the club will still meet on Oct 12 for make up games, casual chess, analysis of
the tournament games played and lessons for anyone who wants them.
And
on Oct. 19, even though the league will be going on, there will still be a few
players milling around looking for a casual game. So always know you are
welcome at LCCC!
