The 30th Richmond Rapidplay, organised by Richmond Junior Chess Club, was held at the White House Community Association, Hampton on Sunday 4 June.
The IMs seemed in a somnolent mood in the first round. Peter Large conceded a draw to Chris Clegg while fellow Kingston Chess Club member Chris Briscoe defeated Graeme Buckley. With James Sherwin taking a half point bye in the first round, Simon Williams was able to open up an early lead over his titled colleagues. Thereafter, events followed a more predictable course, but Simon was able to maintain his lead and take first place, just ahead of Peter Large.
The Major was yet another success for Donny Muter, while there were successes for Essex in the lower sections. Peter Flint, from Chelmsford, won the Intermediate section, and Alistair Hung, also from Chelmsford, shared fiirst prize in the Minor with Henry Kingston, from Cambridge and Richmond Junior Club.
Full results will be published on the Richmond Junior Chess Club web site (www.rjcc.org.uk).
