Thomas and Thorsten played a tight game on Board 1 with neither player getting a decisive advantage, they agreed a draw in a position that either player trying to force was in danger of losing. Daniel managed to get the edge over Neil, with Neil's King becoming boxed in and Daniel forced a queen for rook exchange with a forced mate to follow. James won a pawn in the middle game, which eventually went to an attacking end game with both players stretching for a win, James played more accurately and got the result. The two Roberts on board 4 were last to finish with RW having the edge in a minor piece and pawn end game, but RP stuck in stubbornly and managed to get a draw from a weaker position.
A very enjoyable match overall in which Bournemouth were worthy winners.

Many thanks to Highcliffe for an enjoyable night. 4 very competitive games and I anticipate the rematch later this year will be a close one.
