Fred was a stalwart of Buckinghamshire chess performing many roles, not least as a former controller of the Bucks Individual Championship.

Formerly an all-play competition, the Fred Day Cup will now be awarded for one year to the highest placed Bucks player in the Bourne End One Day Chess Congress.

Buckinghamshire qualification is by any of:

• Representing the county team in the Chiltern League during the current season
• Current membership of a club affiliated to the Buckinghamshire County Chess Association
• Individual membership of the BCCA

There is no entry form or fee other than those associated with the congress.
