I am sorry to inform you that Harry Schofield passed away last year, at the age of 91.
Harry was both a member of Clay Cross Chess Club and Chesterfield Chess Club.
He regularly played for Chesterfield in league matches and coached a number of the new members at the club.
Harry's favourite chess opening was the semi-slav defence in the Queen's gambit opening, he knew every variation up to twelve moves.
RIP
Harry Schofield 1932-2023
