In-house Results
The last two players to make it into the squad of twelve going to the All Ireland Check-Mate competition on April 7th have earned their places. In addition a sub-panel of four players has emerged. All as a result of a two-hour play off of six games using clocks in the Blueroom. Congrats to Fabrizio Sforza and Jordan Murphy ( both fifth years) on making the team and Sean Hayes, Anton Fenkher, Mark Lecane and Gleb Vidauski (3rd, 4th, 2nd and 4th years respectively) making the sub-panel in that order.
