The title was won by Steven Cain after a playoff with Daisuke Matsuura.

We had six players in all, so we started with a five round all-play-all tournament. This finished with Steven Cain and Daisuke Matsuura both on 4 out of 5. Steven lost to Daisuke in round three while Daisuke lost to Edward Ishiyama in round four. The title was decided by a playoff game at the same time limit as the main tournament (30 minutes plus 40 seconds a move thereafter). This game was won by Steven.

President, British Shogi Federation

This was set up very quickly and will be in Broadstairs on 24-25th November.

Most of the British players who would be at the November meeting in London will be in Broadstairs, so we are not sure if there will be a November meeting.

If we have more information I will publish here.
