I'm a 16 year old boy living in Cork, Ireland. My dad is from Tipperary and my mom is from Sydney. I've been, to Australia twice the most recent time in 2004. I love chess and have known how to play since I was about 6. I only starting playing competitively and seriously in the last 2 years when I went into secondary school (high school) and was in a class with the All Ireland U14 Chess Champion as well as a few others who like chess. We came third in a rapid tournament. I go to Christian Brothers College, Cork. We also came second in the All Ireland Colleges Competition. I also play and love basketball. I love to play pool, snooker and table tennis as well. I support Manchester United.
