Gladstone awakens…

The summer months are nearly upon us and the Grand Old Man is getting restless. It’s time to determine the 2019 NLC Chess Champion.

This year the format is a five round ‘swiss system’ competition, with games being played between May and August.

Ten keen Libs are striving for glory:

  • Mister Giffin QC MA (Oxon)
  • Mister Sharland
  • Doctor Kirby
  • Mister Widdicombe
  • Captain Chamberlain
  • Mister Hamme
  • Mister Whiteley
  • Young Master Jacobs
  • Mister Pitt
  • Our Good Friend Mister Taylor

Whilst many dream, few conquer. Who will Gladstone smile upon?

The first round takes place on Wednesday 01 May (7pm, Lawrence Robson Room).
