Teesside Junior Chess Championship 2014 (Part 2)

The Teesside Individual Junior Chess Championships attracted a record entry of 107 players, split into sections for Under-7s, Under-9s and Under-11s. We posted the full results yesterday; this time we present a number of photos from the busy day.

Yarm School hosted the event and their excellent facilities and superb staff ensured all was ready for a full day of serious chess, with nothing else to worry about.

The children rose to the challenge and produced magnificent chess battles throughout the five rounds.

Even the sun shone at all the right times, enabling us to hold the prizegiving ceremony outside, finishing the day with a real feel good factor.
