Here is the annual inspection of Trowbridge players using the latest grading list.
This year no fewer than seven players are graded over 145 and are therefore ineligible to play in the lower divisions. (Last year Tim somehow scraped under the limit using the July 2012 grading list.)
Derek drew 5 out of 5 games (3 of those with Black pieces). In fact we did not win a single game on boards 1 to 3. However we managed 7 draws and a loss on board 1 (even with a guest appearance from Tim).
On a positive note for those in the Minor league,the following very successful players are no longer able to play: Ricardo Rei and Peter Musgrove. Perhaps Swindon will not be the dominant force this time around.

Wiltshire Minor League
This season affords an opportunity for the Minor team to make amends for last season's poor showing. Trowbridge lost 7 of 8 matches, only drawing with Swindon A at home. Swindon A, of course, won all 7 of their other fixtures!Derek drew 5 out of 5 games (3 of those with Black pieces). In fact we did not win a single game on boards 1 to 3. However we managed 7 draws and a loss on board 1 (even with a guest appearance from Tim).
| Board | W-D-L | Points | Players |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0-7-1 | 3½ | Derek (2/4) Roy (½/1) Tim (½/1) Gareth (½/2) |
| 2 | 0-4-4 | 2 | Louis (0/2) Roy (1½/5) Derek (½/1) |
| 3 | 0-2-6 | 1 | Nigel (½/4) Louis (½/4) |
| 4 | 2-1-5 | 2½ | Richard White (0/2) Anthony (1½/5) Nigel (1/1) |
