Grantham 2 drop points at Gambit 2

Grantham 2 travelled to Gambit 2, now playing at the aptly named Lincolnshire Poacher public house, in their latest match in the Nottinghamshire league. As ever the match was played in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere. Although outgraded on boards two to five, Grantham came away with a defeat by only 3:2. Special mention should go to Chris Cumbers who drew against an opponent graded some 45 points higher. Jo Scarborough from the Kings School continues to get valuable match experience as well as extra chemistry lessons from Chris Cumbers in the journey to the venue! (Team members can expect a quick test on transition metals before the next match). The match still leaves Grantham 2 in a promotion spot in second place in the league table.
