After an administrative hiccup last year, the Dragons are back in the Spens Cup for 2024/25 and doing well: we are into the final!

The club championship, organised by Jim, is an all-play-all, single round tournament with players tossing for colours before each match. The time control is league-like, either (a) 34 moves in 85m + 20m quick play or (b) game in 85m + 20s increment (as agreed by both players).

Losing Hamish down south was a major blow, although he may be able to play when he is in Edinburgh. Our squad remains strong but as usual, real life events can cause availability issues.

After a brief visit to Division 2, the Dragons second team return to Division 1. We normally do well in this division but some of our strength is required in the Premier Division.

After their best ever finish of 2nd place last season, the Dragons are on a quest to go one better.

The Dragons 3 team continues its re-launch. Our 3rd tier group is composed of a few old hands and a group of battle-hardened (from last season) not so fresh faces, with a few additions.

The team fought well last season with an excellent 2nd= place finish, but lost out on a tie-break.
