Chairman vs. Secretary Friendly Tournament Report
by Chris Jones
After a long break, the Chairman v. Secretary season opener returned.

This was an ungraded friendly, with 45 minutes each on the clock and players were selected in approximate strength.
It was encouraging to see such a good turnout and we also welcomed potential new members Ross, Henry, Chris and Ben.

The Secretary won the toss with "Heads" and elected to have Board 1 start with White colours.
The match tipped one way, then another. But it came down to the very last game, with Jon turning around a worse position to snatch victory and secure a tied match.
