Oscar Idle,10, joined Cowley last September but has been making a splash in other competitions at the weekend (25/26th February). On Saturday he comfortably qualified for the Oxfordshire under 11s team, winning 3 and drawing 3 matches from a total of 6.
On Sunday he participated with his school team, from SS. Mary and John Primary, in a schools tournament at Eton, where he played the top board from one other primary school and three secondary schools, winning 3 of the games and drawing the other. Because of his high standard of play against opponents up to seven years older than him, he was the only individual to get a mention at the close.
Well done Oscar, keep it up!
