En Passant Cup Champions!

Today we played Charlton in the En Passant Cup final drawing 3-3 and winning on board count!

Charlton 2 v Maidstone 4

Maidstone 4 are En Passant Cup Champions for the 2024/2025 season!

In a hard fought match we started by going 2-0 down when Mick and then Barry both lost their matches. Julian drew his game before Luke and then Bob both did brilliantly to win their games against higher-rated opponents. It meant I was the only player still playing and, after confirming with Luke that we'd win on board count if I drew, I quickly forced a repetition of position to seal the win!

Bob, Luke and Neil with the trophy. Unfortunately Julian, Barry and Mick had already left.

Congratulations to the team on the day and to everyone who played for Maidstone 4 in the En Passant Cup this season!
