World senior team championships 2024

Alan Scrimgour (Scotland) v Tony Hughes (Wales)

World Senior Team Championships, round 5, Scotland v Wales, played on 6 July 2024 in Krakow, Poland

It always feels ironic to travel to a distant land only to play against someone local. This is what happened when I represented Scotland during the recent World Senior Team Championships held in Krakow, Poland. Scotland were paired with Wales in Round 5, and I found my opponent was Tony Hughes, three-times winner of the All Saints Blitz. This game was played at a less frenetic pace, which is more to my liking.
