3/7/21 The UK Chess Challenge is a national event for junior chess players. It is a multi-stage competition with snazzy titles for each stage:
- 1st stage: Megafinals
- 2nd stage: Gigafinals
- 3rd stage: Terafinals Preliminaries
- 4th stage: Terafinals Elite.
Ringwood’s Merlin Cork has been playing in the U18 section and doing rather well against some tough opposition! He scored 4/6 in the Megafinals and 4.5/7 in the Gigafinals, and so has qualified for for the Terafinals Preliminaries which will take place on 5th and 6th September.
Congratulations to Merlin on his fine results so far and good luck for the future rounds.
