In 2017 Phil received an Order of Australia award for community services. He graduated from Federation University in 2019 with a PhD based on Ballarat’s Avenue and Arch. At chess he is a novice, although he has learnt a great amount about this fascinating game during the writing of the book. Doors open at 5pm, and the session will run from 5:30pm-6:30pm.
