Jonathan Payne (14) Rugby Chess Club Player - Notice of funeral arrangements

Jonathan Payne (14), a member of the Rugby Junior Chess Club over several years and regular player for the past few seasons in club matches (CDCL and Leamington League) died in a fatal accident shortly before Christmas. An obituary notice from the Coventry Evening Telegraph includes information about his funeral arrangements and is posted on the RCC site.

Jonathan was a dedicated chess player who frequently played for Board 1 for Rugby C this season and occasionally for Rugby B. In junior tournaments was having notable success in the past year. The Junior Club and the teams he played for will miss him so much.

We extend our sympathy to Jonathan's family at this very sad time.

Note that donations rather than flowers are requested.

Fancy some holiday chess anyone?

Paul Lam, the organiser of the Coventry Chess Academy (aimed at junior players) has sent through some additional information. Here is his message:

We now have a blog/website and a Facebook page which you are welcome to check out.
These still need some work doing on them, but it's a start. They can be found at: http://coventrychessacademy.wordpress.com/

https://www.facebook.com/CoventryChessAcademy

It would be very helpful if you could circulate these links to anyone who might be interested.

 

Preparation for the launch on Saturday 20 July is going well and additional funding has been secured  from the John Robinson Youth Chess Trust; this is a great boost , but any extra would do no harm, so please get in touch with Paul if you have any other funding ideas or tips.

 

Many thanks for all the help and support you have provided so far.

Your Coventry Chess League grade

First a note from Mike Johnson:

Please see below the results that I have sent to the ECF.
It is now too late to change if you think they are wrong.

Please be aware that the quoted performance, or grade, is NOT your eventual ECF grade.
It is merely a reflexion of performance in Coventry Chess, even for those that have played a limited number of games.

View it as bedtime reading and to see how others have performed.
