Presidents Cup
Presidents Cup 16/17 July2022

Lancashire finished a disappointing 7th of 10 teams in the Presidents Cup this weekend 16/17 July 2022.  Best pairs were Nick & Sue Woodcock on Saturday, Stuart Clarke & Sue Woodcock on Sunday. This was played on RealBridge and seemed well organised timewise, but the feedback from some people was that it inevitably had all the accompanying disconnections, background noise, distraction etc which made the event much of a strain most of the time. An East Scotland (?) team won but it was in an odd mix for a annual traditional 'Northern' competition with teams ranging from Gloucestershire, Sussex, West Scotland(?) taking part!!
