U11 Inter-Schools Competitions - Primary Cup

Each year Sussex Junior Chess organise an inter-school chess tournament for 4 age groups. The largest group involves students under the age of 11 (Year 6) who compete in teams of 4 players for the Primary Cup. This tournament has always proved very successful and this year is no exception with 47 teams from 38 schools entering the event.

The tournament would not be possible without the support and goodwill of teachers, parents and other volunteers in transporting, arranging dates and encouraging the children – so a huge thanks must go to all involved, and we hope to see you again next year.

Special thanks to tournament organiser Paula Payne for many hours spent slaving over spreadsheets, and to Great Walstead school for providing the Finals Day venue this year.
