The competition will be held on Tues 27 January 2026

Winning the Competition is restricted to those players who played on either evening in the Dunfermline Tuesday League which was held over two separate days – 4 November and 2 December 2025. However anybody can come along and play and be awarded SBU master points but the winning pair must come from those who played at some point in the Tuesday League (see names below). They don't have to be the same pair that played in the League.

The eligible players are: Wendy Owen & David Dunn; Bill Bald & John Simpson; John Bielski & Betty Bielska; Roy Berry & Andrew Carnegie; Nicola Dean & Fiona McElhinney; John & Patsy Allen; Sue Smith & Jane Searles; Ian McRoberts & Agnes Munro; Bob Robertson & Gertrud Mallon; Helen Todd /Sandy Greenhill & Sheila Pitcairn; Averil McKinley & Pat McKenzie; Jane Robertson & Margaret Innes; Irene Marshall & Struthers Brown; Susan Hoggan & Brenda Burnett.

Congratulations to Janette Waterston and Geoff Bruce (North/South) for coming overall top on the Christmas Hat Night with a score of over 60%. Coming overall second, less than 1% behind, was the East/West pair of Irene Marshall and John Allen.

Thanks to the 38 players for coming along and particular thanks to Margaret, Jane and John for preparing and setting up the food and drink.

Congratulations to Sandy Greenhill and Bill Bald for coming overall top at the Autumn Hat Night with over 61% and they will be awarded the new Bob Robertson Cup at next year's AGM. Congratulations also to Wendy Owen and Tony Hasler for coming top as North/South with over 60%.
Particular thanks to Margaret Innes, Jane Robertson and John Allen for organizing the food and drink for the 30 players who came along.

The club membership fees are due from 1 April 2025. It was agreed at the recent Tennis & Bridge Club AGM that the fees would stay the same. The club membership fee will be £25 plus the SBU membership fee. This is currently £12 but may increase for the new season.

Online Realbridge has been suspended on Monday evenings over spring and summer. Online RealBridge may still be used for club days and evenings when the weather is deemed too bad for travel.

In such circumstances, to play, go to Dunfermline Bridge Club website, select Membership from main menu down the left hand side and then RealBridge. This will take you to a list of dates. Click on the date of the event and that will take you to the site.

Do you know a club member who will be celebrating his or her 80th or 90th birthday soon?  Although we are not able to meet at the club at the moment the committee would like to celebration the occasion with the member.  If you know someone, or it might even be you, please let Jane Robertson know the details.

The club's Master Points are now uploaded directly to the MEMPAD.  There are some paper Master Points in the cupboard for some players.  You should now submit your paper Master Points, after checking that there are no more in the cupboard, to the address on the MEMPAD webpage. You can find this by going to the SBU website and clicking on MEMPAD in the top right hand corner.  See the details below if you haven't already accessed MEMPAD.
