The rearranged Junior 4NCL second weekend is going ahead at Puma Daventry Court alongside the main 4NCL on 23-24 February. Andrew Martin will be doing the coaching, including two formal lectures ('Essential endgames you must know' and 'Attacking the king in opposite-side castling situations').

If any more teams would like to enter, please contact me for details. We will though be looking for an average team ECF grading of at least 75 please, as we will only be running a Division 1 event and Division 2 will not be taking place.

Why is Division 2 not taking place?

1. There were virtually no Div 2 team entries for the second weekend (the original one which was cancelled because of the weather).

2. We felt there were already lots of existing mass participation junior events for Div 2 level players without the Junior 4NCL adding to the general junior fixture list congestion.

Many thanks for quick reply to my question.

The next Junior 4NCL weekend takes place on the weekend of 6-7 April at Puma Daventry Court Hotel (alongside the NCJS Championships). New entries welcome - entry guidelines here: http://www.4ncl.co.uk/jn_entry_form.htm, or feel free to contact me directly. Average team strength of at least ECF 75 grade please.

IM Andrew Martin will again be doing the coaching, including two formal lectures ('Winning Won Games' and 'Saving Lost Games'), one less formal lecture and individual game analysis on a one-to-one basis on request if time permits.

There is more than one link on that page.

The ones to Ray's excellent images are working fine.

The one to Sean Terry's gives me a Google + error page.

Maybe it behaves differently if you are currently authenticated as a Google user at the time?

If anyone is interested in joining a team for this weekend then please contact me as I think I'll have one or two spaces for new players.

Panic over, I now have enough players, at least until I check my e-mails again

Results and tables now on the 4NCL website at http://www.4ncl.co.uk/jn_news.htm. Congratulations to Gloucester Giants as the overall season winners! And of course many thanks to the players, parents, captains and organisers.

Hopefully some reports and photos will follow.

I can't see anything on the final weekend via that link

CTRL + F5?

I had to do the Ctrl+F5 trick when I first went on the 4ncl site to check the round 9 fixtures.
