THE HARRY BAINES MEMORIAL 77th BRITISH CHESS CHAMPIONSHIPS EASTBOURNE 1990

(report by Stewart Reuben from 1992 BCF Yearbook of Chess)

Unhappily, Harry Baines, for many years Chief Arbiter of the B.C.F., died shortly after the 1989 Congress. His family decided it would be fitting to donate a substantial sum towards the congress in his memory. Although major events often commemorate leading players, I believe this is the greatest event ever to so honour an organiser.

The decision to do this came late in the day. Thus the uncertainty may have led to a slightly reduced entry relative to Plymouth 1989. However, there was a magnificent turn-out for the Championship even at such short notice and 10 grandmasters took part—a record. Jim Plaskett won the title handsomely, meeting most of his close rivals and securing a 2700+ performance. Michael Adams annexed the Under-21 title for the third time in a row, making it four times he has held that title. Susan Arkell started slowly but, once she got in her stride, there was no doubt who was going to be the 1990 British Ladies' Champion. The weather was the hottest within memory. Understandably, the ventilation system in the hall was inadequate to cope. Perhaps this led to rather more pragmatic play than usual but it could not be described as lethargic. Memories are short. People have already forgotten that it was much stuffier at The Guildhall in Plymouth, despite being a more temperate summer.

Philip Hoad won his eighth Veterans' title. Several families seem to be annexing various junior titles. Thus Mandy Haslinger won the Girls' Under 9 and Cathy the Girls' Under 16. Adam Hunt picked up the Under 10 title, while Harriet took charge of the Under 12 and 13 Girls' Championships. Andrew Webster won the Under-14 in 1986, this year it was his sister Fiona's turn for the Girls' Under-14.

33% of the entry came in after the penalty fee date and no less than 20% turned up at the congress. This makes things extremely difficult for the organisers and George Smith and Mike O'Hara are to be congratulated on keeping their cool. A two-tier penalty fee system is being reintroduced in 1991 to help cope with this problem.

It had been hoped that The Times would sponsor the congress to a minor extent in 1990 and properly in 1991. But their requirement that the event be held perpetually in London was unacceptable to the players. Thus the uncertainty and the reason the 1991 venue wasn't known before the end of the 1990 congress. Eastbourne proved so suitable that it really wasn't a difficult decision to return there immediately. This is the only time this has happened in the history of the congress. However it is extremely worrying that, because the event is growing larger, it is more difficult to find a suitable venue. Also due to the present economic climate and the government's attitude to local spending, fewer councils are ready to make their venues available free.

There was the usual range of special events. John Emms and Andrew Whiteley gave simuls in the burning sun. There were Any Questions sessions with the players and B.C.F. Organisers. The latter were more acrimonious in the past. There are always going to be problems when a major sponsor drops an event, and Kleinwort Benson had a very good 11 year innings. The positive attitude of many of the players and their offers to help were most heart-warming.

The Richard Boxall Plate for Services to the Congress was awarded to Principal Arbiter David Welch. Since then, he has been appointed Chief Arbiter of the Federation, but we are continuing with a system of three Principal Arbiters at the Congress. Thus, in a sense, Harry Baines has been replaced by three people. The members of the Control Team not mentioned before: David Carpenter, Eric Croker, Vic Cross, Roger Edwards, David Eustace, Neil Graham, Alex McFarlane, Peter Purland, John Robinson, Phil Short, David Wallace, Alec Webster, Andrew Whiteley. Malcolm Pein had an unflagging marathon stint as commentator, ably assisted by move runner, Michael Lamb.

The Floral Hall provided a real family atmosphere and yet was large enough to enable people to analyse their games in peace. Let us hope the atmosphere will be as congenial in 1991.

Date Notes
13 May 2014 296 games, plus 33 skeleton games, crosstable, with most round numbers and dates included. If anyone can supply missing games, a more complete crosstable or info about round numbers and dates, I would be very grateful.
1 May 2018 Rather an embarrassing error, both for BritBase and ChessBase: Ken Norman points out that both databases have the round 5 game MJ Franklin vs MJ Franklin! Ken has consulted his copy of the tournament bulletin to discover that White was Christopher Franklin. Amendment applied. Thanks, Ken.
1 May 2018 Brian Denman has helpfully added round numbers and dates to a large number of games. To this I have added some more stubs, in order to generate a better (but still incomplete) crosstable as shown above.
19 September 2020 Some further amendments to data such as ratings (taking the ones recorded in the BCF Yearbook to be correct). Complete crosstable added, though not all colours shown may be accurate. Also full results of other sections. I've included 293 games of a possible 407, plus 11 played by Erkki Pesonen, a Finnish player, in the Major Open, which I found online.
23 September 2020 The last few moves of Webster-Lewis (Rd 11) have been amended. The bulletin moves were clearly wrong and Paul Georghiou has supplied the moves that he thinks he discovered from another source.
27 September 2020 Minor amendment to check colours of games in the Championship crosstable now complete. My thanks to Paul Georghiou for doing this. This has also enabled me to provide board numbers for each game and to place the games in board order per round.
28 October 2022 Added one game: S.Joseph 1-0 N.Noden (U15, rd 6). I've included the later Stephen Joseph's own notes to the game, from the 1990 Midlands Championship bulletin.
29 August 2024 Added seven more games played by Steve Giddins, from rounds 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 and 11. Move order adjustment made to S.Bibby 1-0 S.Giddins (rd 8). Many thanks to Steve Giddins.
