Junior Chess Is Healthy

[Patrick McGovern]

I had the pleasure of witnessing many junior players playing at this weekends Marymas tournament. Their manners and chess etiquette were first class. The chess ability was of a very high standard and their maturity over the board was astonishing. I saw some wonderful games and win, lose or draw there were no tantrums or huffs
Congratulations to their parents and coaches for the wonderful job they are doing with their boys and girls.

Special mention to masters Howie and Stewart, I watched some of their games, they are certainly going to be very special players.
