| HAT TRICK OF WINS |
CONGRATULATIONS to Geoff Smith, Rob Jones, Bill Thomson and Mike O'Neill on winning the F2F Pivot teams at Carnon Downs on Sunday 29 March. They finished with +124 IMPs, an amazing score in a 28 boards event. A very creditable second on +42 IMPs were the West Cornwall team of Sue John, Colin Lee, Geoff Plowman and Phil Dickson, and in third place with +31 IMPs were Suzanne Warring, Neil Harris, Mick Robson and Jo Bryant.
This is the third consecutive county teams event that the winning team have won this year. They are representing Cornwall in the national Pachabo Cup Final in June, and in their recent form, they can look forward to the event with every confidence.
