Teams Event

Tuesday 18th October saw the annual teams event with seven teams competing. Congratulations to Elaine, Rod, Bob abd Lynda who gained an impressive 82 IMPS.

Bright Ideas?
Got a good idea for inclusion on the website? What about a list of successful slam bids or top percentages scored?
Maybe you would like to see tips on actual cardplay - when to finesse, when to cover, when to draw trumps etc etc.
Or what about 'hand of the week' - devoted to an interesting deal?
It is your club, so why not choose a topic? Let us know your suggestions, but make them nice ones!
 
Sun, Sand and Bridge!!!

A number of members are planning to attend a Mr Bridge short break o 7th -9th March 2017  This is to be held at the Inn on the Prom, Lytham St. Anne's. Forther information is available at www.mrbridge.co.uk/ukbreaks  If there is sufficient interst a mini-bus can be booked If anyone is intersted please speak to Lynda 

Hosting
 We need volunteers to act as hosts at our regular bridge events. If each member offered to host just one Monday, one Tuesday and one Wednesday we would have enough on board to keep us going for well over a year. You get a free session and, more importantly, play a large part in supporting the system. So, sign up on the lists on the club noticeboard and, who knows, you might play with someone who helps you acquire the elusive masterpoints you need!
