Staffordshire County Tournaments 2009/10 For the Withnall trophy, clubs from the north will be paired (at random), against clubs from the south.
When there are no clubs remaining in one group, any remaining clubs from the other group will be paired against each other.
For the other cups, pairings will be drawn at random from all the clubs taking part in each event.
If you have any thoughts or comments, please get in touch with Graham Humphreys.
Tel: 01384 571486
Grades will be taken from the ECF's official 2009 list.
If required, Stafford Chess Club should be available as a neutral venue.

| Hickman final |
|
For the first time in several years, West Bromwich competed for the title of Staffordshire County Champions this year (the Hickman Trophy).
Unfortunately for their players, last year's winners were also in the final, and they had other ideas.
Congratulations to David Anderton and the Walsall Kipping.
With a 4½ - 1½ victory, they retained the trophy.
