details of the England team going to the European Youth Championships (which is indeed a different event from the EU Youth) are at http://englishchess.org.uk/Juniors/meet ... pionships/David Shepherd wrote:Now if your talking European rather than EU.......
Sam is indeed going to the Europeans (not the EU...) - as is Katherine Shepherd (as David was too modest to mention).
