On 10th September Jude Lenier, Hastings and St. Leonards Chess Club Champion, played his first simul and managed to win an impressive 18 out of 21 games.
The simul took place at Hastings Stade Community Hall and attracted a good crowd of visitors. The event was organised by Hastings & St. Leonards Chess Club and Hastings Chess Congress. Thanks should go to Cath Amika Powell, Hastings Heritage Open Days organiser and Sarah Yates, Manager of the Stade Hall, for their help and enthusiasm.
