Congratulations to Lars Dobbertin-King, winner of the 2015 Blitz Trophy. Lars fought a strong challenge from Guy Burns to keep his 1.5 point lead and take out the ultimate Kapiti speed-chess prize.

Our next and final phase of play—the third series of our Club Champs—starts Wednesday. Can Alan Winfield hold his lead of 2 points? Only time will tell as Kapiti’s top players battle it out.
