Congratulations to Maria and Anna Wang who continued the club's remarkable record of junior success at the British Championships held earlier this month in Canterbury. Maria scored 3.5/7 in the Under-16 tournament, and thereby became Joint British Girls' Under-15 Champion. Her younger sister, Anna, scored 5/7 in the Under-12 tournament, coming second overall and winning the British Girls' Under-12 Championship outright. In the Under-11 tournament, she scored 6/7 to finish first equal and so not only became outright British Girls' Under-11 Champion, but also Joint British Under-11 Champion.
Congratulations also to former Cowley junior, International Master Adam Hunt, who finished equal third in the British Championship on 7.5/11 and secured his 2nd Grandmaster norm with a 2624 performance over eleven rounds.
