The popular open section continues in the main hall.

 

The major section is always one of the best attended in the congress calendar.

 

The Minor section in full flow.

 

Every square foot of available space was used to cater for the large number of

entries.

 

Competitors of all ages were represented in Blackpool.

 

David Clayton and Steve Hughes making final adjustment before play starts.

Throughout the congress they were responsible for the live internet broadcast.

 

....and for keeping visitors and players up to date with the games on their large

screen presentations. 

 

After a hard fought battle players examine their games in the analysis room.
