1873 Varsity Match: Oxford vs Cambridge

This part of BritBase is dedicated to Timothy Whitworth (1932-2019) who, knowing my interest in the Varsity chess match, sent me a copy of Jeremy Gaige's booklet Oxford-Cambridge Chess Matches (1873-1987) out of the blue some years ago. This slim volume, to which Timothy himself contributed a great deal of research, has been of inestimable value in compiling information about this annual chess fixture, which is effectively a continuation of Gaige and Whitworth's original work.

Format  
1873-91 7 boards, multiple games played per board
1892-1977 7 boards, single game per board
1978-81 7 boards plus 1 women's board - tie-break only
1982-91 7 boards, 1 women's board, all boards count
1992-present 8 boards (including at least 1 player of each gender per team)

A note on the above records: they do not include games played in the five unofficial wartime matches (1940-1945 matches). However, I have chosen to include individual results from the so-called 'ladies' board' which was played between 1978 and 1981 and which was stipulated as counting towards the match score in the event of a 3½-3½ draw (as happened in 1979). Cambridge scored +3, =1, -0 in these four games. JS


Oxbridge winners of the British Chess Championship (as at 2023)

There have been 8 Oxford-educated winners of the British Championship with 13 titles between them:

DA Yanofsky, LW Barden, PN Lee, GS Botterill (2), JS Speelman (3), JDM Nunn, WN Watson, J Rowson (3)

There have been 9 Cambridge-educated winners of the British Championship with 22 titles between them:

HE Atkins (9), W Winter (2) CHO'D Alexander (2), A Phillips, RD Keene, WR Hartston (2), AJ Mestel (3), PE Littlewood, HJM Grieve.

In total, this amounts to 34* tournaments of the 104 British Championship tournaments to 2023. (* not 35 as Barden and Phillips shared the title in 1954)

6 January 2022 Added John Cox's 1982 game vs Stuart Niman and his 1983 game vs Allan Beardsworth. Thanks, John.
14 March 2022 Added the games of the 2022 Varsity match and updated stats and records.
21 March 2022 Added the game R.Chubb 0-1 G.Carruthers, 1913 (board 3) and also corrected the date of the other 1913 game on file to 17.03.1913.
22 March 2022 Added the game H.Mandelbrote 1-0 M.Daniels, 1913 (board 6). Full results for 1912 through to the present now available.
28 March 2022 Added four more games and one part-game from the 1884 Varsity match.
29 March 2022 I've made some considerable additions and changes to the games for the 1885 Varsity match. Note that the score of Barnett 0-1 Young (rd 4) is completely different.
29 March 2022 Five more game scores found for 1886: game total now 768.
7 April 2022 Number of games and part-games in the download is now 779.
14 April 2022 Added the game N.Kalton 1-0 P.S.N. Kendall, 1967, board 6, kindly contributed by Gerard Killoran. Number of games now 780.
19 April 2022 All the games from the 1898 match are now available. (Strictly speaking, one of them, board 7, is cut short at the point where a player gets a hopelessly lost position and a further 20 moves are not given in the source but may be considered complete.)
2 June 2022 Added the game D.Mardle 0-1 L.Barden, 1952 Varsity match, found in the May 1952 issue of CHESS. Number of games now 781.
27 June 2022 Added the game J.Brown 0-1 A.P.Waterfield, board 2, 1909 Varsity match. Number of games now 782.
9 July 2022 Minor amendment made to the score of O'Gorman-Wadsworth, Varsity Match 2022, Board 1. (The DGT board gave 40 Bh1 but White gave 40 Be4 in an annotation he wrote for the May 2022 edition of CHESS. Within a handful of moves the position transposes anyway.)
1 January 2023 Added the game score of Eales ½-½ Moles, board 3, Varsity match 1970, found in an issue of Chessman Quarterly. 18 moves but the score may not be complete.
19 March 2023 Roger Smith very kindly sent me the scores of his games from the 1970, 1971 and 1974 matches which I have added to the collection. Many thanks, Roger.
3 September 2023 Added the game Gunston 0-1 Tracey, kindly supplied by Tim Harding.
4 September 2023 My thanks to Jason Radley who drew my attention to four further game scores given in The Chess-Monthly, Vol.4, April 1883, and also to an error in the game Locock-Morley where published game analysis after move 19 had been wrongly shown as game moves. We now have eight complete game scores from the 1883 match plus stubs of the other three games played.
4 September 2023 Match records have now been updated to include the 2023 match results. One detail still outstanding - can anyone tell me which Cambridge college Freddie Hand is a member of? (Later: the answer is Trinity)
7 March 2024 2024 match result added. Some records updated and corrected (the team scores shown for 1901-1903 on the above list have been corrected).
5 July 2024 Added the game D.Cummings - A.Beardsworth to the 1982 match file and complete Varsity match PGN file. Many thanks to Allan Beardsworth for supplying the score.
