Its with much sadness we have to announce the passing of Colin Macgregor.

Colin passed away peacefully after a short illness, his family was by his side.

Colin started his chess in Dundee, but for the last 35 plus years was a popular figure in Glasgow and Dumbarton chess leagues.

He always had time to help others and had many a wee story to tell about his chess life.
RIP colin.

Huge congratulations to RCC member and A team captain Alan Jelfs on his impressive display at the Oban Challengers event over the weekend.

Alan posted an impressive unbeaten 4.5/5 to tie 1st equal and share the winners honours with Daniel Thomas. A great effort by both players.
