Edinburgh Wins British Online League, Glasgow Promoted

The fifth season of the British Online League was won by Edinburgh's first team for the second year running with fellow Scots, Glasgow, winning the second division, and earning promotion to the first next year. Their place in the second division will be taken by the demoted Central London Go Club's B-team, where they will be joined by third division winners Milton Keynes, while Edinburgh's second team move down into the third division. The league was organised on behalf of the British Go Association (BGA) by John Collins, who also captained the St Albans Kyus, winners of the Wooden Spoon, and was played in the British Room on KGS. Registrations are now being taken for the sixth season, expected to start at the beginning of March 2014.
