May 2003 Go meeting

For this event we had a very distinguished visitor from the British Go Association. Francis Roads has been playing and teaching Go in the UK since his university days some decades ago.

Starting off with a few rules and the history and philosophy of the game.

Go boards come in all shapes and sizes. A good supply of portable boards was present.

Satoru and Ken play on a full 19x19 board.

Francis plays 3 teaching games simultaneously.

All boards were in full use until closing time.

There are 5 or 6 clubs in London. The British Go Association website has a lot of good information on finding places to play. Else just ask Ken or a comittee member about it and they can point you in the right direction.
