Chichester have won Division One of the Portsmouth & District Chess League. Playing away to Portsmouth a good result was needed to ensure Emsworth could not spoil the party, all 6 boards of the Portsmouth match were decisive with Chichester wins recorded by W. McDougall, J. Wilson and E. Farrington to bring home a 3-3 draw which proved enough as Emsworth drew their match at home to Gosport.

Congratulations to Chichester A on their Championship win!
