On Monday Afternoon five tables played a two winner Mitchell movement. John Crompton & Val Richards topped the North / South side with 73.33 and Carlyn Miller & Sheila Mann led East / West with 53.33.

Monday Evening saw eleven pairs playing a Howell movement to produce a single winner in this blue pointed Founders Championship Pairs Event. Jim Bainbridge & Smita Basu came first with 63.54 followed by Max Kynoch and Malcolm Melrose with 58.33 and Michael Ward & Don Prowse with 54.76.

This result takes Malcom & Max into the lead of the Founders, but only just ahead of Brian Mawby & David Reed, with only two events to go!

On Tuesday Afternoon of last week Jim Bainbridge & Lo Tolbutt led the North / South side of a ten table two winner Mitchel movement with 65.18. Brian Jacks & Don Prowse took second with 61.01. Gerald & Pat Newth led the East / West side with 60.12 followed by David & Marilyn North with 56.85.

On Thursday Evening, six full tables played a single winner movement. Graham Clarke & Felicity White took the top spot with 62.92 followed by Janet O’Connor & Don Prowse with 60.00.

Our very full Autumn programme with three courses of lessons and two coaching / supervised play sessions continues until the end of November.

Bridge 2
Bridge 2

This is a ten week course. There is a break in the half term week.

The course is great for players who have taken our Bridge 1 course, or have some duplicate, "kitchen", rubber or Chicago experience.

The lessons are designed to take you at a gentle pace through the things you need to know to use the fundamental principles of the ACOL bidding system to get good results at duplicate sessions.

During the course our Wednesday morning novice/social practice session will follow each lesson with a themed practice on the lesson topic.

We would suggest that you play in that session as well to really get the best out of your learning.

By the end of this course you will be able to enjoy Wednesday morning practice, or Monday Afternoon sessions or even try our Tuesday afternoon or Friday teams.
