The final standings for each age group in the 2018/19 season are below. Results from the four grand prix are counted. The top four players in each age group were invited to the finals day, held in June 2019, where the Somerset Junior Chess champions were decided for each age group.
We congratulate those who prove their consistency to finish in the top 4 in their age group, and also all players who show dedication and perseverance attending multiple events. We hope you continue to enjoy playing and improving your chess.
Consistent performance and appearance at the Somerset Junior Chess Grand Prix events can be rewarded with an invite to join the Somerset Junior Chess county team, and compete against other county teams in regional and national competitions.
