Bridge at Castle is great fun with a great atmosphere, suitable for all levels of players across the different types of tables with an experienced tournament director. New participants are always welcome, especially beginners, people returning to play after a gap and experienced players.

| President's Prize |
The bridge season came to a conclusion on Monday 12 May when the President's Prize was held. Angela O'Connor and Eleanor Fitzgerald were the winners with an outstanding score of 67.5%. Paula Dineen and Martha Jones were in second place. Paula and Martha had two consecutive good days at the table as they were on the winning Castle team on the Intermediate B Fanagan League the previous evening, see the article below.
The season has been most enjoyable and well organised under the leadership of our tireless President, Tony Bourke.
From all of us Tony - thank you for a job well done.

- You know you're in trouble when the first thing the opponents decide to do is draw trumps, and you're the declarer.
- The real test of a bridge player isn't in keeping out of trouble, but in escaping once he's in.
- If 3NT is a viable proposition - then bid it.
