This week, we were pretty busy with the first round of the summer cups:
Chapman Cup
We took an absolute pasting from a stronger Wigston side.

In the next round, we play at home to Wigston 1 before 21st June.
Wylie Cup
A win! HA1 often wins the Wylie outright. Could they do it again?

| 2½ - 5½ | ||||||
| 1 | 173 | Horspool, Philip | 0 - 1 | 0 - 1 | Sharpe, Graham | 185 |

Club Night
A club night is unlikely this week owing to the County Championship games at Wigston on Thursday.
Eastlake Vs Ross
Oh dear...
Afterwards, I was asked why I played 34...h5 rather than taking the knight on d2 (which appears to be en pris). Ok, I could have resigned already and h5 was rubbish, but 35 Rxc4+ Kd5 (or Kd6, or Kd7) 36 Rd4+ and then 37 Rxd2 Game Over.
Eastlake Vs Ross after 34 Rg4
Well done everyone,
Colin
