CASTLEHILL ONLINE QUICK-PLAY SERIES – ROUND 1 – Report
CASTLEHILL ONLINE QUICK-PLAY SERIES – ROUND 1
Tuesday 7th May 2024 – 7:30pm
Season 2023-24
In the 1st Online Quick-Play of the 2023-24 season held on Tuesday 7th May 24, 7:30pm on Lichess.org, we had 8 players involved. A bit disappointing, but hopefully over the series, we will get more. It was only a 5 round Swiss, due to the numbers, so a quick night for all!
It was a very competitive and strong competition which included a CM and 4 juniors, one of which was playing for the very first time!
Our top seed on the night was Rishi Vijayakumar J13 and he did not disappoint finishing top of the pile on 5 out of 5! Richard Kynoch fought him all the way and his only loss was against Rishi in round 3.
Josh Dickson J13, was on fire tonight, starting off with an outstanding win in round one against Graham Mooney CM! Josh then followed that up with a win against Robert Jackson in round 5, to finish in equal 3rd place with Matthew Hunter J15 on the night, outstanding!
It was not Graham`s night as he only scored 1 point out of 5! We all have nights like that, no matter how good we are!
Justin Chocholous J13 had a tough baptism of fire, but hopefully he enjoyed the experience and we will see more of him from now on.
Congratulations to Rishi, but it`s only round 1!
Next round is on Tuesday 4th June 24, 7:30pm.
See you all then!
