Chess Duo represent Yorkshire in National Finals

Matthew Mairs (Form 3) and Nick Cunningham (Form 4) returned to school this week after a busy weekend representing the Yorkshire Under 11 chess team in the National Counties Finals held in Northampton. County teams from all over the UK featuring some of the strongest junior players in England participated in the event on Saturday 10th May. Both of our players were involved in three matches, with Nick winning two of his individual games and Matthew winning one. Although the Yorkshire team did not achieve a top three finish on this occasion, both boys should be extremely proud of their selection and participation in such a prestigious national event! We at Cundall Manor are very proud of the progress they have made. Well done!
