MCCU OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP

 

2011-12 Season

Match dates are

15th Oct Shropshire v Worcestershire

5th Nov Shropshire v Leicestershire

3rd December Derbyshire v Shropshire

28th January Lincolnshire v Shropshire

3rd March Shropshire v Gt Manchester

 

Derbyshire v Shropshire 3rd Dec

This match has been conceded due to lack of support. This is disappointing after last months win and I am appealing for players to make themselves available for the match against Lincolnshire, held at Syston, Leics (half way). Defaulting the Derbyshire match will probably mean that we will have an additional away match next season, so expect Four away matches and one home match which will likely to be at the half-way venue of Syston Leics!

 

Shropshire v Leicestershire 5th Nov

A happy occasion as this was my first over the board win as County Captain. Nick Rutter was unlucky to pick Grandmaster Mark Hebden and was black again but that was were the bad news ended as remarkably no losses between board 2 and 14 meant Shropshire gained a good victory.
