Remarks
Victories without a fight are taken into account in the individual balance sheets, defeats without a fight are not taken into account.
Due to a line-up error, Helen Milligan's games were counted as lost in the British Chess Magazine's competitions against the second team of the Barbican Chess Club and against the Invicta Knights Maidstone. The actual results (win against Heather Lang, draw against Heather Richards) are taken into account for the individual balance sheets.
