County Competitions Update |
County Competitions Update
As a county we have recently struggled to achieve viable numbers entering our competitions and have as a consequence sustained some financial losses. Feedback suggests that the bridge calendar is still very crowded and after 2 years of travel restrictions many are keen to get out and do other things rather than stare at computer screens. In the light of this we have reluctantly taken the decision to cancel a second attempt to run the Merseyside & Cheshire Cup this season. One event is planned before the summer holidays:
Jim Davies Trophy
A single session evening Swiss teams (5 five board matches) online on Thursday 7th July. Entry reserved to those with primary or secondary allegiance to Merseyside & Cheshire.
County Teams League News
This competition will continue until the end of June and feedback has generally been very positive. We would ideally like more teams to enter in future years and to assist our planning, all captains were invited to participate in a recent survey.
If you wish to offer any suggestions or have any comments to make about county competitions these would be very welcome. Please email either Chris Raymond (drcjr56@gmail.com ) or Simon Anderson (simonand1402@gmail.com ).

Deva Bridge Club News |
A short note to inform County members (and others who may be interested) that Deva Bridge Club, situated East of Chester, has made a significant investment in a new Ventilation System. It is now fully operational. We hope that this, along with other improvements, will attract many players to return to F2F Bridge in the near future. It is also the intention of M&CBA to return to this venue very soon for County level events. So, as they say, Watch this space!
