Tasmanian Rapid Series 2: Ulverstone

An interesting cross section of players was attracted to the Ulverstone event. Juniors playing sport missed the event but players from Hobart, St
Mary's, Launceston and the NW made a field of 22.

Alastair Dyer was top seed and went through untroubled and undefeated to finish on five from five.

Two other juniors secured equal second, Kevin Hendrey and Lawrence Bretag, with their improved play rewarded.

Overall the play was dominated by juniors with Carey Kuzmic, equal 4th, the only adult in the first six. New players, Kimberley and Peter Tongue (juniors), Lenard Lange (J), Jesse Howard and Zen Zero enjoyed the day of their first open tournament.

The final event of the Rapid Series will be in Launceston on November 21.
