Silver trophies for the Kent U11 Girls' Team
The Kent U11 Girls had a fantastic result at the EPSCA Final on 24 March 2018 at Cheney School in Oxford.
The team finished 2nd out of the 12 counties taking part. The runners-up position behind Barnet was secured through some determined and consistent play.
After scoring 9/12 in Round 1 to lie 1st equal, the girls consolidated with 8/12 in Round 2 leaving them just 0.5 ahead of Berkshire in 3rd. A spirited 8.5/12 in Round 3 was enough to win the silver trophies.
Particular congratulations go to team captain, Radha, and to Eleanor, Krisha and Hollyann who all won all their games. Well done also to our reserves who gained valuable experience for the years to come.
The full team was: Radha Ratnesan, Roxolana Chaban, Stefania Iosub, Vaidehi Varma, Anya Srivastava, Zara Pepper, Laura Holmes, Eleanor Colesmith, Krisha Kamat, Teodora Iosub, Hollyann Reeves, Georgina Bruce, Scarlet Watson, Violet Davies & Sophia Ciobotaru.
Thanks to all the parents who drove to Oxford and supported the girls over a long and tiring day and to GM Chris Ward whose wise counsel and inspirational talks spurred the girls on to their terrific result.
