Chess in Schools and Communities

Deserves a lot of applause and I'm glad to see that it's getting some. ECF congratulates Chess in Schools & Communities to read of its commendation at the Sport and Recreation Awards for 2012. Nice photograph. Who is that posh looking geezer with Malcolm Pein? :wink:

Now that Malc is 'mixing it' with Princes, is there a chance he may become Sir Malc? :)

Well done to Chess in Schools & Communities!

Adding to this thread, that there is a Chessbase report as well:

http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail.asp?newsid=8372

Possibly with a few more pictures as well (not checked the link above).

PS. Paul, the permanent link for the above ECF story is this: http://www.englishchess.org.uk/?p=20555
