Bremen Primary School Chess Championship 2013

We are the Bremen Primary School Chess Champions 2013!
This year`s tournament was held on 28th Feb. in Habenhausen Secondary School. Forty teams from Bremen and Delmenhorst took part, with each team playing against a team with the same number of points, so that a winner emerged after seven rounds. Each school, including us , fielded several teams and here are our results : Gete III, 14th place, GeteII, 9th place and GeteI, with Jakob, Malte, Moritz and Joschua , 1st place!!
After 6 rounds we faced some strong competition from Mahndorf I and BaumschulenwegI who were leading their group. Jakob and Joschua on boards 1 and 4 had played well all morning but were quickly beaten in the 7th round. Malte and Moritz on boards 2 and 3 knew that everything then depended on them . This provided a very exciting match for the spectators. Moritz won easily having only conceded half a point. This left the last match to Malte who had lost one point. I thought this would put too much pressure on Malte but he proved himself equal to the task and won the the day for us - with this victory we qualify for the German Primary School Chess Championship in May!
The Chess Championship for Gymnasiums was on the 26th and 27th February and both of my teams from Hamburger Str. Gymnasium won. Taking part were 3 ex-Gete Kids, Dmitrij, Long and Jakob G.
Well done everyone!
