George Neave Wrote:Well, this has been and gone now and, honestly, this was the most enjoyable and instructive 15 hours I have ever spent looking at a chess board. Absolutely top rate. Congratulations to Jacob and Quality Chess for making it happen. Thank you to Edinburgh Chess Club for hosting and, of course, a big thanks to Nigel Short for allowing us access to his fascinating insights from the very top end of the chess world over the past 40 years. Absolutely tremendous!
Great to hear this went really well George.
Hopefully this is the start of more of the same to give chess players of all levels that wee extra boost and less of the nothing that was organised in the past. So well done to all in not only those who helped organize it, but also those people attending it.
I am sorry to have missed it being so time poor myself at the moment, but I would welcome and encourage more of the same to be done in the future.
Looking forward to our own club coaching nights over the coming months.
