With
this third straight win, Essex U100 has emulated the U160 side by winning
its Division with a match to spare. Many congratulations to Malcolm
Crane and his merry band on this success in only the second season
(played as U075 in last year's inaugural season). And not just any
old win, but a thumping 9-3 victory against closely-matched opposition.
Winning the top five boards is a stellar performance.
Essex
therefore qualify for the first ECF U100 competition, where they
get a bye to the semi-final and await the winners/nominees from the
Northern Counties.

Q:
When is an U100 competition not an U100 competition? A: When it
a 'new' U100 competition. Confused? Before the recent grading bands
shift, this team would have been labelled U75. The SCCU had an U75
competition a year ahead of the ECF. By the time the ECF adopted
this competition in the national stages, the grading bands had been
re-labelled and what would have been the ECF U75 section became the
ECF U100 competition.
The purpose of this riddle? We should
trumpet the Essex U100 team as the first winners of this new section,
but the ECF have had an U100 competition since 1995 and Essex
have won it twice (now re-labelled as the U120, etc.). So Essex are the first winners of the new
U100 competition! Confusingly, the team was presented with the 'old'
U100 trophy!
Essex are the ECF U100 County Champions,
having defeated Warwickshire 8½-3½ in the final in Leicester on 10th July; a
thoroughly convincing performance.
The
team have carried all before them this season, not simply becoming
national Champions, but doing it with a 100% record: Played 6 Won 6. Splendid!
The
players score the points and deserve hearty congratulations for
their achievements. However, a look at the team sheets above will
show how closely the gradings have been matched, the final being
no exception. This indicates exceptional team spirit, engendered,
no doubt, by Malcolm Crane's match captaincy. Malcolm - non-playing
captain throughout - has already attracted plaudits for his
organisation and enthusiasm and rightly so.
