Hendon Blitz Tournament - 2nd July 2009
Report by Adam Raoof
www.hendonchessclub.com/
21 players (and one supersub in Mike Bennett) turned out on this balmy July evening for the latest in the series of ‘First Thursday’ blitz tournaments hosted by Hendon Chess Club.
The strongest player in the field was Hendon’s Tomer Eden, but he faced serious competition from in-form Salvatore Pepe and Jonathan Landau, and welcome visitor Rajko Vujatovic, who saw the event mentioned on the English Chess Federation website.

PAUL SANDERS - R.I.P.

It is with deep regret that we have to report the death of Paul Sanders at the age of 59.
Paul was a long time member of Negas Chess club - later the St Vincents Chess Club. He had been a regular player for both clubs from the 1970s until the last couple of years. He regularly supported the Hull Congress for many years and was a popular competitor at local and Yorkshire venues.
He will be sadly missed by all local players and our sympathy goes out to his wife, Cynthia and all the family.
The funeral service will take place at the Haltemprice Crematorium, Willerby at 11.15 am on Monday July 6th. Family flowers only but donations at service to MacMillan Nursing Association.
