Congratulations to Leigh Harding and Jim Norman for winning this year's Portsmouth Cup donated by David Wing in 2013 - the chosen charity for 2016 was Diabetes Research and Wellness Foundation based in Northney. The total donations received from table money (from both Tuesday and Thursday players), plus extra donations, amounted to £63, which was doubled by the club.  A cheque for £126 was presented to a representative of the charity.  Many thanks to everyone.

This initiative has been set up by Fred Hotchen of the HIWCBA and members interested in tuition, either at venues in Hampshire or on-line, are invited to visit the web site at www.bridgewebs.com/ learninhampshireislewight.
