Term 2 Chess Club Simul with International Master Leonid Sandler
There was a fantastic turnout at Chess Club on Monday 26 May, with over 20 students and staff stepping up to challenge International Master Leonid Sandler in a simultaneous exhibition match.
While Sandler’s undefeated streak remains intact, the Mordi challengers certainly made him work for it. Only seven students were checkmated before the lunch bell, with several games still going strong — a solid improvement from last term's result and a testament to the growing strength of our players.
We’re looking forward to welcoming Leonid back next term. Until then, Chess Club continues every Monday lunchtime in LC 5. All students and staff are welcome, whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out. Come sharpen your strategic skills and join the fun!
