Greenlands Chess Club Today --- And Now What ????
And Now What ??
A question most of us ask as we make our moves !!
We currently have one BDCL team (D4), and a team in both of the
Worcestershire Leagues (In D2 of both)
The current season 2016/17 has already seen ups and downs with us struggling to try to
maintain D4 BDCL status. We unfortunately lost two strong long standing players recently but on the other side have been joined by good enthustiastic new members and welcome Gary, Steve and Stan to help turn the club back onto an upward direction. In addition to our regular Birmingham League players, our current squad also benefits from the loyalty of Brian, Geoff and Frank who play in the Worcestershire Leagues and also help us out in the Birmingham League.
As well as playing, over many years, L.Wheatley, R.Collett and I.Truscott have also been very active in the running of the club and not forgetting S. Johnson & D. Beckett in earlier times.
Thanks to all the people who have contributed greatly for our clubs' benefit over the years.
Now to the future. ???????????
New members Steve & Gary along with Richard and myself (Roy) are very keen to try to help find new Greenlands players.
Could you follow in Keith's path from us to Grandmaster ??
We may be struggling now but not many clubs have such history !!
Onwards & Upwards, we hope so ! Please Join us -- You'll be very welcome !!
