Ladder Competition 2016
All
Welcome to the Phibsborough Chess Club Ladder Competition 2016
The ladder competition will run all the way through without interrupting the leagues, club championships and the summer competition.
Attached are the rules and the initial randomised ladder for the competition. New players will be added to the bottom of the ladder.
The list was prepared from the team lists. I have already spotted two people not on the list. I will add them on the next email.
If there are any others missing please forward an email to me. I will also be calling a couple of players who do not have emails.
The games begin in January. Forward me an email for contact details if you want to arrange a match on the 4th January or email/phone them yourself.
The €5 entry will pay for the prizes to be given out on the night of
the Christmas Blitz next year.
Regards
Fergal

Win for the Heidenfeld team
The heidenfeld them had a narrow (4.5-3.5) but much needed win v Inchicore B on thursday. Wins for Michael, Tony and Fergal, and draws for Art, Mohamad and Marius.
Armstrong loss to Elm Mount
The Armstrong Cup team lost 6.5-1.5 to Elm Mount on Monday (the fixture was rearranged due to a clash with the international soccer play-offs). A tough match where we were out rated on all boards. An excellent win for Dario, and a draw for Conor prevented a whitewash.
Heidenfeld Result v Blanchardstown
The Heidenfeld Trophy side lost 5.5-2.5 on wednesday last against a very strong Blanchardstown side, excellent wins for Marius and Kryzstof and a draw by Peter.
