David Norton from Horley prevailed over a very competitive field scoring an unbeaten 5½/6 and picked up the Berberich Cup and £150 1st prize.

David Graham of Worthing came clear 2nd on 5/6 and was also unbeaten.

Three veterans came in as equal 3rd place on 4½/6;
  • Ian Snape (Beckenham)
  • Chaski Patrick (Uckfield)
  • John Sugden (Hastings & St L)
Grading prizes were won by ;
  • Martin Cutmore (Folkestone)
  • Paul Jackson (Coulsdon)
  • Daniel Finn (Sussex Juniors)
  • Matthew Britnell (Lewes)
  • Jon Lawrance (Crowborough)
  • Andy Mitchell (Lewes)
  • James West (Coulsdon)

The team results were;

  • Gold Medal (Boxes of chocolates)  WORTHING 10½ Points
  • Silver Medal LEWES 10 Points
  • Bronze Medal SUSSEX JUNIORS and SUSSEX MARTLETS 9½ Points.

And finally after 30 years of hurt he never stopped dreaming.

Jon Lawrance was the first winner of the Albany Cup presented to the highest placed Crowborough Chess Club player in the tournament of 1987.

After 30 barren years Jon once again picked up the trophy with a very fine 4½/6 and a grading performance of 180.
