🌟 Shoutout to Our Amazing Director of Play, Rob! 🌟

Rob has been a cornerstone of Norths Chess Club since joining our committee in 2018, stepping into the Director of Play role at very short notice—and he hasn’t looked back since! His dedication to our club is immense. Rob oversees our club nights, manages tournament pairings, and is our go-to expert on chess rules and organisation. Thanks to his hard work, Norths has earned a reputation as the best-organised chess club in NSW, and we’re constantly seeing record-breaking membership numbers!

Rob’s contributions reach far beyond our club walls. As Secretary of both the NSW Chess Association and the Australian Chess Federation, he keeps Norths Chess Club prominently connected to the Australian chess community. He’s also a highly qualified chess arbiter who runs training seminars, sharing his knowledge with chess lovers across the country.

Though many of us know Rob from Tuesday nights, his behind-the-scenes work is just as remarkable. He spends countless late nights ensuring our tournaments run to the highest standards, and we’re incredibly grateful for his commitment to the club.

Thank you, Rob, for everything you do for Norths Chess Club! 🙌♟️
