This competition had 16 entrants and was played over 5
rounds. It was very tight at the top with Oisin Murphy winning the competition
on a tie-break from Ronan Dobey and Gearoid Brennan. Ronan Dobey's performance
was notable in that he was unbeaten through the 5 rounds with 3 wins and 2
draws but a win by Oisin Murphy in the last round meant that the tie-break went
to Oisin. As brother of Dara Murphy, Oisin will be well used to seeing Junior
Chess trophies in his house!
