Club Update |
Minehead Bridge Club
Minehead Bridge Club has a team that competes in the Somerset County Bridge Association League playing regularly on line against eight other Somerset teams in Division 3 of the league. Chris and Paula Parkin, Davina Lord, Mike Currie, Graham Lavender, Tony and Geraldine Goldsmith and Sally Stuttard have all played for the team this season which jousted on line against Wells, Street,Kingston Seymour, Holder, Frome, Coxley, Castle Cary and Crewkerne.
The total points at the end of the season showed little between the top three positions. Frome coming top, Crewkerne second and Minehead third, a very credible result for the club against tough opposition and narrowly missing promotion.
Like most other clubs Minehead Bridge Club’s membership dropped temporarily post covid but some 16 newcomers started lessons with volunteer club members as teachers in January. These lessons are continuing and the club is now reaping the benefits of these new members playing competitively.
Duplicate bridge is played every Tuesday evening in the Minehead Avenue Methodist Church Hall starting at 6.30pm. The club welcomes new members and holds practice sessions for beginners and returners to the game. Introductory lessons will resume in the autumn.
