Prep success at Cornwall Junior Chess Championships

Leading the Prep squad was Adam Hussain winning the Cornwall Under 12 Championship with 5.5 out of 6 to add to his Under 14 Title.

We had six entries in a very competitive Under 10 Section. Charlie Sexton finished 2nd with 4.5 and played well as suits an ex-Under 8 Champion!

Myla Hussain received a medal as the highest placed girl and equal 3rd with William Wang, Jonathan Taylor and Jack Chen all on 4/6. Miles Townsend won two games in his first competition for the Prep.

Inigo Quaife showed how much he’s improving as runner up in the Under 8 Championship. The Prep also won the Cornwall Schools Team prize awarded for the best four player total with a first, two seconds and the joint thirds we scored a resounding 18 out of a possible 24.

Congratulations to all eight for representing Truro School so effectively and thanks to the parents who came to support them all.

My D of E assistant Zac Berger has been helping to train our leading players at the Prep and must take some of the credit.
