Old Puller Cup 2007

Report bad links

The 2007 Old Puller Cup team competition was held at St.Albans Chess Club on Sunday 20^st May. It was very pleasing to see another increase in both the number of teams and players, 9 teams and 60 players. The format remained the same as last year in that the top four scoring players from a club contributed to the final result in 3 sections. The sections being open, under 150 and under 125.

The top section was won by top seeds Royston. There was a three way tie for second place between Hemel, St Albans and Welwyn.

The under 150 section was very close with Welwyn Hatfield Chess Forum just a half point in front of Hertford and St Albans.

The under 125 section was also won by Welwyn Hatfield Chess Forum by half a point from St Albans.

Thanks to Chris Majer for presenting the prizes, after the president disappeared early.
