| PACHABO CUP |
29 County Associations entered the National Teams of Four Final, the Pachabo Cup, on the weekend of 8-9 June. Cornwall was represented by Geoff Smith & Glyn Meredith (who played all four sessions), Jo Bryant & Mick Robson (3 sessions), and Chris Bickerdike (2 sessions). The team had a brilliant first day, being placed 3rd overall, after 15 of their 28 3-board rounds. Sunday was much tougher, playing most of the strongest teams, and the team slipped down the field.
After originally being placed 14th overall, Cornwall was elevated to 12= as a result of a dramatic appeal in their match against the Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire team. C&H were originally the outright winners of the event but they were demoted to second as a result of Cornwall's successful appeal on board 33 (Sunday afternoon) in their match against each other.
It was a very good effort by the Cornish team, one of the minnows of the EBU, to finish in the top half of the field. Each player won 2.99 green points.

| WESTERN LEAGUE |
The Western League has concluded for another year. Thank you to all 27 players who represented the county during the season. Despite winning only two of their seven matches (they had four very narrow defeats) the C team faired best finishing 3= with 68 VPs (70 is average). The A team finished sixth in their league with 63 VPs (3 wins, 4 defeats) with the B team finishing last in their league with 52 VPs (2 wins, 1 draw, 4 defeats).
