  • Årboken 2009/10
    Årboken 2009/10 NTG Sjakklinjen 1 Forord Denne boken er et minne fra året 2009-10, og et innblikk for andre i hvordan dagene og de spennende turene forløper seg. Sjakk er spredt i Norge. De unge, gode spillerne finnes over hele landet, men NTG er et samlingspunkt. Her møter vi andre motiverte ungdommer med ambisjoner om å bli bedre. Vi blir en gruppe som kan gi hverandre en dytt i ryggen eller et klapp på skulderen. På NTG er vi så heldige at vi får full studiekompetanse, samtidig som vi har sjakk på skolen hver dag. Vi blir kjent med andre idretter og målrettede mennesker. Det er en skole med elever som ønsker å oppnå noe, gjerne på profesjonell basis. Hvor inspirerende er ikke det? Med Simen som trener på sjakklinjen spretter jeg opp av sengen når vekkerklokken ber meg stå opp. Han er et entusiastisk JA-menneske med fokus på stadig å utforske det fremmede. Akkurat en slik person man trenger som toppidrettsutøver når dagene blir lange og presset stort. Arbeidet med denne boken har vært lærerikt. Hva er bildekvalitet? Hva skaper interesse hos leseren? Og hvordan i alle dager fungerer dette rent teknisk? Dette, og mye mer, har jeg fått gleden av å lære mer om. Jeg takker Simen, medelever og lærere for et minnerikt skoleår. Vennlig hilsen Katrine Tjølsen NTG Sjakk, Årbok 2009-10 “Of the people, by the people, for the people” (Fritt hentet fra Abraham Lincoln.) på sjakklinjen på Norges Toppidrettsgymnas, avdeling Bærum Redaktør: Katrine Tjølsen Backing: Simen Agdestein Takk til masse sauer og tullebukker - samt Harald R.

  • BULLETIN 8 Søndag 7
    BULLETIN 8 Søndag 7. juli. Pris kr 20 Den beste vant Norgesmestertittelen og Kongepokalen gikk til stormester Jon Ludvig Hammer (23) som hadde god kontroll på partituviklingen i siste runde mot Rune Djurhuus og sikret seg seieren med en remis. Dermed kunne publikum glede seg over å få hylle en Norgesmester og ikke bare stikkampspillere som i utrolige åtte av de ni foregående årene. Årets nybakte norgesmester Jon Ludvig Hammer med kongepokal på toppen av pallen. De øvrige premierte elitespillerne er fra venstre Frode Elsness, Atle Grønn, Leif E. Johannessen, Rune Djurhuus, Berge Østenstad, Frode Urkedal og Aryan Tari. Det var heller ikke mye tvil om at Jon Ludvig var en fortjent og riktig mester av Lillehammer 2013. Han spilte nok jevnt best, ble den eneste ubeseirede spilleren i klassen og endte med ett helt poengs margin til Frode Elsness, som han i et svakt øyeblikk avga en kanskje noe unødvendig remis til. For norsk sjakks del var det også best at den yngste og mest seriøst satsende stormesteren vår ved siden av Magnus Carlsen lyktes med å legge feltet bak seg og bli norgesmester for første gang. Gledelig var det også at yngstemann, Aryan Tari, bekreftet den jevnt over sterke framgangen sin med en lovende IM­tittel etter sitt tredje napp i tittelen på drøyt tre måneder.
