The Hampshire Chess Association held a new competition for 2024/25. One of our aims is to grow chess in Hampshire and specifically increase the number of female players. With this in mind we introduced the HCA Women’s Individual Championship. The format of the competition was a double round all play all at players’ clubs or homes, between September 2024 and May 2025.
Although a small tournament, we hope this is something which will help in someway.
A mixture of young improving and experienced players were in the small number of entrants, and experience proved the winner in the end, with former British Women's champion (as well as Junior and Senior champion) Gillian Moore proved successful. Details will be added to the HCA website shortly, but in the meantime an article has been added to the Hampshire Chess History website.
