Player of the Month!! (January)
Hello EveryOne, Let me start with one of the famous quotes:
“We cannot resist the fascination of sacrifice, since a passion for sacrifices is part of a Chessplayer’s nature”
(Rudolf Spielman)
We thank all the players who participated in Team Matches. No matter what the result is we are thankful for your time and effort you spent to play team matches for our Powerful Pawns group.
