Good luck to Amardip and his Sussex Junior Chess colleagues who take on the best from Murmansk, Leningrad, Novorossiysk, Rotterdam and Paris in a 6 team round robin tournament.

The Sussex team are being accompanied by our very own Jonathan Tuck and Balvinda Ahluwalia and we will be watching the games with interest.
