NZCF Directors of Training Appointed

Recently, expressions of interest for Director of Training were sought by the NZCF Council. Following that process, I am delighted to announce that Gordon Lyall and Richard Christie have both been appointed by the NZCF Council.

Both Gordon and Richard have grown their clubs significantly through junior development and tournaments, are FIDE Instructors with plenty of experience, and have some good, practical ideas for training and development of chess and players in New Zealand.

On behalf of the NZCF Council, thank you to all those who put their names forward, and congratulations to Gordon and Richard!
