Rooks team in the 2024-5 Challengers League

21 Mar 2025. The Rooks won their away match with Malvern to go into second position in the table, but Redditch have matches in hand and the Rooks cannot catch Redditch even by defeating them in the final away fixture. Chris Lee and Scott Oxtoby won their games. See full results.
13 Feb 2025. In a busy night for the club with two fixtures against Longbridge, the Rooks drew. Dorin Luca won his game. See full results.
21 Nov 2014. Minus captain, Chris Lee stepped in, but Longbridge turned out a highly rated team and won. Keith won his second game for the Challengers and Tony held Stephen Woodhouse to a draw from a complex late middlegame position by simplifying to a minor piece ending with three pawns each.
14 Nov 2024. Worcester defeated Malvern and new plaer Keith scored a win.
19 Sep 2024. In the first Rooks match of the season, Worcester’s hopes were high when they found Redditch had to default board 4. Although Worcester was out-rated on board 1, the other two games were between players with similar ratings. These games were balanced well into the middle games, but Redditch players prevailed on both.
1 Sep 2024. Stourbridge decided to play in the District league rather than the Challengers. First match result awaited
