WOW at last a grand slam on Monday 15th June. Congratulations to Maaike & Len W who bid a G/S in 7NT on board 13 well done. Eleven small slams were also bid during the afternoon.

Another steady week at the club. Unfortunately, it is now the time of the year to say farewell to some our Brexiteers – Carol & Terry return to Southend for the summer – many thanks Terry for both directing and scoring whilst you have been with us – safe trip home.

A reminder for ALL – the Committee is here to run the club NOT to clear your mess after bridge – Monday it took us at least 30 minutes to clear up – we ONLY ask you to clear your table of debris – glasses to the kitchen and bidding boxes, table numbers and boards to the Office.

Another NAG – your director tries to accommodate ALL the N/S requests but unfortunately it is NOT always possible with certain movements – please NO moans.

I’m sorry to say we have heard that Ann Phillips is now in hospital in the UK with a chest infection – Ann our thoughts are with you and hope to see you back in Javea soon – missing your radiant smile.

The Committee has a Meeting this Friday – if you want anything discussed please email the club or talk to a Committee Member.

Our 2026 World Cup Sweep is now underway – who will be the luck winner – some of you are already disappointed with your team’s performances – one of my teams Cape Verde plays today they only have Spain as their opponents!! Best of luck to you ALL. A list of Teams with Members is now on the website for you to check progress.

If you have any signs of a cold or a cough, please stay away from the Club – we have a few vulnerable members. Also, we would remind you to dress accordingly - bring a cardigan, jacket, or shawl with you as the aircon is on.

Bridge bookings for w/c 15^th & 22^nd June now open – slots available - you can e-mail the Club, use the sign-up sheets in the Clubhouse or TURN UP WITH A PARTNER BEFORE 2.00 LATEST. If you have signed up, please be at the club by 2.15pm.
