AYLSHAM CHESS CLUB
Aylsham teams win chess leagues! Two Aylsham Chess Club (ACC) teams have won their respective Norfolk County Chess Association (NCCA) leagues. During the 2021-22 season, Aylsham Spitfires (NCCA Div 2 West) competed against teams representing Broadland, Fakenham, King’s Lynn and North Norfolk. Aylsham Hurricanes (Div 3) competed against teams representing Broadland, North Norfolk, Norwich (St John’s Bishops & Knights) and Wymondham. John Wickham (NCCA & ACC Chair) commented: “After two years of COVID it was great to complete a full chess season. Aylsham Chess Club, only founded in 2018, did well in winning two of the NCCA leagues. Hopefully, Aylsham will be able to build on this success and, possibly, have enough players for a third team in the 2022-23 season.” To find out more about Aylsham Chess Club contact Jonathan Reeve: Tel: 01263-733744 or email: aylshamchessclub@gmail.com For details of other Norfolk Chess Clubs visit: www.norfolkchess.org/ clubs.html
