By now, the ECI tournament had built up a reputation as one of the stronger junior tournaments in Europe. Schüssler, who had won the previous edition, defeated Pirisi who had finished second then. Supančić made up for a slow start by beating his direct rival Coppini in the last round. From the Belgians, Ghysels started really well but was thrown back after losing in the last two rounds. The girls group was a new addition. There were a great number of minor tournaments, but my hopes of finding the crosstables for these is very slim. All information I have comes from [1].

Wanted

  • Almost all games.
  • The crosstables from many of the minor sections.
