Results from this seasons Winter League.  

Winners:  Julian, Tony R, Tony D, Mieka, John & James

Runners up:  Adrian, Simon, Tony, Jennifer, Denis & Jeff

Apologies if I have missed any team members from the above teams.  I will sort the prize money over the next few days.

I would also like to say well done to Joe and the juniors.  Some had little or no experience of bridge or of team’s events, but they turned out and played.  A hard, but great learning experience for them.

Supported Play: Would you like to improve your bridge with a friendly group of like-minded players? If so you can join our Supported Play Sessions at 1.30pm every Wednesday , cost £5 per person. If you are planning to join us, you can now book a ticket in advance online via the club’s website or pay on the day.

Supported Play sessions of between 16 and 20 boards give you the opportunity to play bridge in a friendly environment where you can ask for help when you are not sure about bidding a particular hand. Please try to arrive around 10 minutes early so we can set-up a movement and get play started promptly.

The Pro-Am Teams are back! The Pro-Am Teams sessions will be held on the 4th Wednesday of the month. Come along as a pair and you will be matched with appropriate partners.

SCORING SYSTEM
