I am sorry to inform you that Keith Emerton sadly passed away in hospital on 17th November 2022.

He played for and captained Chester teams up to the pandemic.
Notwithstanding his age, he took part in online matches in the last couple of years, memorably beating IM Peter Large in a match against Epsom Chess Club.
Keith also represented England Seniors in the World Senior Championships.
