The Williamson Shield 2022 took place at Stormont from February 4-6, marking another very welcome step in the transition back to in-person tournaments, and attracted 31 players across two sections.
Many thanks to organiser Damien Lavery, who transcribed virtually all games in both sections that weren’t shown on live boards, and also provided 70 photos. Full reports have been added here on both events: Williamson Shield 2022 (1st Mandar Tahmankar, N.I.C.S.) and Williamson Shield Intermediate 2022 (1st Matthew Smyth, unaffiliated).
The 70 photos are divided into 8 pages because of size limitations (each page takes about 2MB).
