8 Sep 2026. Round 1 for proved problematic for the co-managers. Several key players in the A team were absent playing over-the-board in the Worcestershire League Championship opening fixture. When individual pairings were published it was eveident that Team D had drawn a short straw and were playing a much higher rated team that has to start at the bottom of the 4NCL online league. In team A Alex, in his first appearance in Division 1, won his game. The B team lost in spite of having a received a point through a default.
