As we enter the second half of the season, champions ALCA and hosts Perse Upper remain tied for first place, both having dropped only 3 points across 8 games so far. They don't play each other until the final event, which is sure to decide the championships.

In the Kasparov division, there is a thrilling dogfight for promotion with Newnham Croft A and two KIng's teams seemingly fighting over one spot.

We wish you all a happy holiday and look forward to welcoming everyone back on Sunday 25th January.
