All to play for

The first team now faces a tough set of fixtures within a short space of time. Last season we won the McArthur Cup and the Mid-Sussex League first division, but we shortly face challenges in both competitions. In the league we have 5.5 out of 6 and are in the lead, but our last three fixtures are against Crowborough 1 away and Horsham 1 and Hastings 1 at home. In the McArthur Cup we have drawn Horsham away in the semi-final in a competition which is played over six boards. The winners meet either Hastings or Haywards Heath in the final. Spectators are always welcome, but please make sure that doors are shut tightly when entering and leaving rooms. It would be very unfair if a player in time trouble were to lose their game because of noise in the room.
