Ilford v Barking A
Essex Summer Rapid Team Knockout
Monday 24 July 2019
Barking won this thriller by 7 – 12 on board count after the match score was tied on 5-5.
Despite conceding an average of 28 points per board Ilford gave Barking a real run in this match with the evergreen Syd Kalinsky halving out over the two rounds and Ilford new recruit Venkatesh doing very well against John White. Unfortunately for Ilford, Jeff Goldberg steadily out-played Neville on board 2 and this was key for Barking to win on board count.
The team now go into the Plate and will face either Wanstead B or Thurrock.
