History of Wolverhampton & District Chess League

In March 2020, David Short (W&DCL publicity secretary) published a 75th birthday tribute to its founders at:

He also maintains the website which has the league's official history 1945-2013, lists of officials, trophy winners, and links to digitised copies of Staffordshire Chess News (late 1960s-late 1970s) and WDCL Chess League Monthly Bulletin (1965-7) WDCL League News Bulletin (1977-1995) and WDCL Chess League Newsletter (1997-2013).

This superb historical record was compiled by Steve Wilcox, Graham Humphries and Mike Groombridge.
