Newington Chess Team NSW Metropolitan Champions
Congratulations to all members of the Intermediate A Chess team. Although they were unable to overcome the might of James Ruse High School in the final, their efforts throughout this year have been both distinguished and honorable.
All players have been excellent ambassadors for the College displaying sportsmanship, determination and dedication together with a high degree of skill.
The team lost 3 -1 with Justin Ting (10/JN) winning his match on the 3rd board while the others had hard fought losses to highly credentialed opponents.
My personal thanks to the individuals concerned: Cedric Koh (9/MO), Victor Dai (10/FL), Justin Ting (10/JN), Nicholas Sharp (9/JN) and William Tao (9/KL).
