"Hello, my name is Salome Neuhauser, I am 14-years old and I have recently won the French championship for girls under 16 in Aix-les-Bains. I am currently licensed with the club Châlons-en-Champagne. Last year I was in Evry where I worked with GM Arnaud Hauchard, before that my coach was Vincent Moret in Vandoeuvre. I am also attending clarinet classes at the conservatory and I like to play badminton.", she shared with the match organizer Frederic Sellier.
Salomé Neuhauser
"I began playing chess at primary school when I was seven years old as my brother’s were members of the chess club. This helped me a lot because I was ambitious and always wanted to beat them. I then unexpectedly won the U.K Chess Challenge U7 section and realised my talent for the game. Following this I was contacted by Blue Peter who wanted me to appear on the show with Garry Kasparov. He was my idol and this was an amazing experience; one of the best days of my life. I then carried on playing competitively and studying hard. This meant I was selected for the England team and started traveling all over the world.
At thirteen years I won the Nigel Short Chess Scholarship to Millfield School and began playing regularly for England in the World and European Championships. Millfield School was excellent for my chess; I received regular coaching by a grandmaster and was taken to many competitions around the country. Most notably I became the West of England Ladies Champion and captained the school to the finals of the National Schools."
Sarah Hegarty
"Aside from chess I love going shopping, socialising and playing badminton. At school I achieved high grades, qualified for the U.K Mathematics Olympiad, received a distinction in history and was a prefect. Once I finished school I took a year out of education to improve my chess and to volunteer in an orphanage in Cambodia. This was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life and although eye-opening and sad was thoroughly enjoyable. I now study Chemistry and Law at Bristol University and I want to become an Environmental Lawyer. I am ambitious in everything I do and love playing competitive chess."
