Inter Hall Chess 2019 Final Results

The fight for the inter-hall chess championship comes to an end with Azad Hall winning the first position. The competition was fierce, as all the halls gave their best.
The top three standings are as follows:
1. Azad Hall- 4.5/6
2. MS Hall- 4.5/6
3. RK Hall- 4/6
The positions for teams with the same points were decided using the tiebreakers. It is worth mentioning that RP Hall and Patel Hall also had the same points as that RK but tiebreaker declared RK as third.
Cheers to all the winning teams and other teams don't get dishearted. Next time fight even stronger.
