CHESS GAUTENG CHAMPION LEAGUE<br />

On Saturday the 18 August Curro Roodeplaat u/15 and u/19 teams participated in<br />

the District 1 league match at Du Preeze van Wyk in Bronkhorstspruit. Imagine, over<br />

50 teams competing for the first place in our district. The silence…<br />

Our u/15 team came first in the league, and the u/19 team third.<br />

The u/15 team was invited to compete in the Gauteng league final championships.<br />

This is a major victory for Curro Roodeplaat as our u/15 team has never before<br />

qualified to present our school at the championships league.<br />

On 25 August, emotions run high as the Pretoria showgrounds was transformed.<br />

Chess matches was played inside the Badminton hall. Outside under every possible<br />

patch of shade team strategy was discussed, planned, and practised. After every<br />

round of chess, a stronger opponent had to be faced. Curro Roodeplaat made it to<br />

round 4 where we unfortunately lost.<br />

Our u/15 team is now ranked 1st in our District and 24TH in the Championship<br />

league.<br />

Congratulations!<br />
