Geoffrey Marain claims 111th WASPA title


On July 20, the day before National day, the Templeuve United club held a 3rd WASPA tournament counting for the 2020-2021 season. 10 players from Belgium were competing with a special format of tournament to satisfy the aimes of the differen competitors. There were old faces coming like Geert Leys paying a visit to Templeuve and Eddy Beernaert who was back to the game after a long break and there were two new players attending a tournamen for the very first time. The Swiss system was played in four sessions but after 3 sessions, the winner was already decided as Geoffrey Marain was the only player to have 7 points. Considering he had to play his last game against his son benjamin, it was decided that Geoffrey would not play the last session so that the other 8 players still present could all play another game. That decision was good for Benjamin Marain who managed to beat Didier Moons and to finish the night with 9 points to finish runner-up. Vincent Coppenolle was 3rd and undefeated (8 points) while Geert Leys was 4th (7 points). More importantly all players had a great evening and were glad to meet again.
