Club Championship Pairs |
Congratulations to Chris Comer & Peter Copsey who have won the Club's annual Championship Pairs by a comfortable margin!
The competition ran over Tuesdays 16th & 23rd May 2023, later than usual but just in time for a rousing cheer at the AGM.

Annual Ladders: 2022-23 Season Winners |
The annual ladder competitions reached their conclusion for the previous Club Year at the end of March, but no-one noticed! So, belated congratulations to ...
Individual Ladder
- Robert Elliott
- John Sutcliffe
- Peter Oake
Pairs Ladder
- Peter Oake & Robert Elliott
- John Sutcliffe & Robert Elliott
- Steve Ensor & Tim Connett
Click on the headings for the tables. Peter Oake & Colin Scott deserve an honourable mention in the pairs, but just failed to qualify according to the '15 sessions' rule.
The state of play in this Season's competitions can be seen from the Menu to the left (or follow this link).
No doubt our chairman will adorn this box with champagne and chapeaux in due course.

Billericay Mayflower History |
 Peter Williamson has very kindly put together the history of the club. Peter is one of the last playing founders of the original club.
Click on this box and have a read, there are some lovely pictures which probably date from the seventies complete with dodgy moustaches, crevats and a mean, moody and magnificent Peter.
If you have any pictures of Mayflower Bridge or the people who have played here please send them to John@johnmccoy.co.uk and get them saved for posterity before they are lost like tears in the rain!

Seeking a Partner |
 After years of sterling service Carol McCue is stepping down from the find a partner role - very many thanks to her!
Going forward there are alternatives - the website has a facility for you to register the dates when you would like to find a partner. You will have to register in the members area first - this is very straightforward. The other method is to contact me (John McCoy) and I will attempt to find a partner. The former method is best for the more longer term and the latter when your partner cries off at short notice with a broken eyelash or man flu! I can be contacted on 07474 267160 or john@johnmccoy.co.uk - click here to send an email. During the day text messages/email are probably the best way of contact as sadly I am still working.
There are I'm sure people that don't come through lack of a partner or they may not wish to play regularly. If you are aware of somebody let me know their names and I will contact them and see if we can get them back playing or as an occasional last minute stand in.
John

Club Ethos |
I play on a Bridge website playing teams and happened upon a Swedish Team's logo, fortunately in English:
Play Fair
Play for Fun
Play for Knowledge
Play among Friends
Couldn't have said it better - so its now on the page heading!
