Tuesday summer swiss
Well the Tuesday Summer swiss did come to the
promised to exiting finish. David and Shane locked together on 5 with Luke only
half a point behind and this is how it finished. Aquick win for David on board
one and one of the longest games ever witnessed between Luke and Shane, where
Shane went from a win to a draw to a loss on time. Actually the most fascinating
game was on board 3 between Laurie Dalton and Anurag Sannidhanam The pair had
met the week before in the Friday Xmas swiss with a win to Anurag This time
Laurie managed to reverse the result. I think laurie had an edge throughout the
game but Anurag ever recourceful kept finding good moves almost until the end.
Here is the final cross table

BOX
HILL CHESS CLUB 55th Birthday Celebration
When
the Committee first considered holding a celebration to mark our 55th
anniversary of formation the key question was, “Will anyone come to a Chess
Club Birthday Celebration?”
Leading
up to the day of the celebration, Sunday the 16th of December 2007,
there was some nervous organisers as interest was not apparently overwhelming.
However,
the enthusiasm of our energetic President, Gladys Liu, is contagious and a good
crowd arrived at 5pm to be greeted by fresh seafood salads, hot pizzas, and
drinks. Quickly the many juniors settled into playing the social TRANSFER and
BLITZ, while seniors such as Scott Sharman, David Flude, Roger Croft, Elliott
Renzies, Marcus Raine, Trevor Stanning, and Laurie Dalton played more sedate
styles of chess and debated the merits of chess variants.
A
definite attraction was a couple of GO players who challenged Derek Yu and Chris
Wallis in this Asian board-game, and showed that there is a lot to be learned in
the deceptively simple game.
6pm
came and it was time for speeches. (And in the background, time for Rachel Siah
to order another delivery of pizzas as the good turnout had made short work of
the first order).
Gladys
highlighted the success of Box Hill CC in the chess community and the blossoming
of the Canterbury Juniors Chess Club, which was supported in its formative years
by Box Hill.
Gerrit
Hartland gave a full history of significant occasions for the Box Hill club.
Gary
Wastell, President of the Australian Chess Federation, spoke in appreciation of
the teamwork by the Box Hill Committee over many years.
Robert
Clark, local State Parliamentary member, said he appreciated how significant it
was for a voluntary organisation, such as a chess club, to still be going strong
after 55 years.
Then
it was time for Gladys to introduce the piece de resistance’, a special
cake with the decorations having a chess-board theme, topped by fruit pieces
dripped in chocolate and carved as chess pieces. Of course we sang the happy
birthday song.
My
favourite part of the day was the unveiling of a brand-new honour-board to
record Box Hill Chess Club champions and presidents. It is a mighty sight and
our thanks to the donors who supported the fund-raising earlier in the year.
I
spoke with Elliott Renzies after the ceremonies and he said he had a tear in his
eye during the speeches.
A
tear of joy at being part of a lovely social occasion.
It
was time for farewells and best wishes at 8.30pm.
Well-done
Gladys and Rachel and their helpers.

December 9 Rookies and Queens cup by Gerry
Hartland
The last of the Rookies and Queens Cup
tournaments for 2007 was our best tournament ever. Wonderful crowd and
constantly improving juniors. The highly rated Jesse Sales who finished with a
picket fence score won the adult section. The Rookies was shared between Rukman
Vijayakumar and Nicholas Liu. Sarah Anton again took the Queens Cup.
As predicted the overall Rookies winner was Cedric Antolis and The Queens
Cup winner was Sarah Anton.
I would like to thank our sponsor Z chess in
the person of George Zaprutsky, who has stood by us throughout the year,
Antoinette Ziffer who with her catering and her students took the 2007
tournaments to a new level, Trevor Stanning for his expertise with the entries
and Swiss perfect, and the senior members of the club in particular Leon Kempen
and David Flude who in their different ways added colour and stability
