Nottingham Congress Results

Several Grantham players were in action at the recent Nottingham Congress held at the Nottingham High School. In the Open Section, Ivan David played splendidly to take home the U170 prize and the recording highest score by a Grantham player in the section with 3.5 out of 5 for a share of equal fifth place ahead of large number of much higher-rated players. David Coates came equal seventh with 3 out of 5, half a point ahead of Paul Cumbers who was equal fifteenth. In the Minor Section, ungraded William Grummitt scored an excellent 3.5 out of 5 to take outright sixth place in his first weekend event.
