The Club is open for F2F play, and we are glad to see an increasing number of members returning to the Club. 

In accord with government guidelines, we have now decided to relax the Club Covid rules. See below. 

The minutes of the Club's AGM held on Thursday 9th June 2022 will be published shortly. 

Enough for the moment to reassure members and other interested parties that the Club is very much open for business and the Club Duplicates will take place as normal.

There will be an EGM (Extraordinary General Meeting) prior to the Duplicate on Thursday 7th July 2022. Nominations are requested for vacant positions on the Committee. Click here for further details of those already standing for election. 

There are no longer any legal Covid restrictions. So, while the Club Committee will continue to monitor how this should affect the Club's policy, it has been decided that we should now relax our 'terms of play'. So:-

1. If you are diagnosed with, or show symptoms of, Covid or Flu, we would still expect you to stay away until you are recovered. 
2. Asymptomatic attendees may of course wear masks if they wish, but need not do so, nor take a Covid test unless circumstances suggest they should.
3. All should use hand sanitizer on entry to the Club.
4. Unvaccinated individuals may attend at their own risk. 

We hope these measures will continue to provide a safe environment for all our members. 

The ladders for the past year have reached their conclusions. Congratulations to:-

1. Val Mollison for winning the Ladies' Ladder, and thereby the Faye Wernick Trophy
2. Peter Oake for winning the Gentlemen's Ladder, and thereby the Lionel Wernick Trophy

Peter also has 'first refusal' as Club Captain for the 2022/23 season.

Well done to Les Curtis and Dave Piper who won the Mary Rogers Trophy for 2022 by a comfortable margin. That's in addition to their victory in the Windmill Trophy and joining The Seventy Club earlier in the year. Something must be done about this!

Well done to Les Curtis and Dave Piper who comfortably won the Club winter championship in a good turnout for these Covid times.

Les & Dave also won the somewhat less prestigious Player of the Month competition for November: see the notice to the right. 

If you are looking for a partner, you have three basic options:

• Log in to the Members' Area where you can view current contact details for all members, and you can optionally send email(s) to players of interest to you (see the panel below about 'Accessing the Members' Area if necessary); or
• Use the on-line partner matching service available through this website (see the panel below about 'Accessing the Members' Area if necessary); the advantage of this method is that your request is posted immediately though the disadvantage is that you may need to wait for other players to see the post; or
• Send an email to mountCM15@gmail.com. This action will result in an email being sent to potential partners, though there could be a delay as such action triggers a manual process.

If you have not already done so, please click on the 'Membership' menu item, then follow the instructions.  Enter your email address as your 'name' and then press 'Forgotten Password'.  You will then receive an email with a password that will enable you to log into the membership area.  NB You MUST use the email address by which the club recognises you, e.g., the one to which Secretary sends you club-related messages.  Once you have registered on the system in this way, you will be able to log into the membership area, where several services are open to you:

• You can view the current club membership list, on which you can find your 'Club ID', which serves as your personal 'short-code' for the wireless scoring system. 
• You can also register that you are seeking a partner.  Note that in the Calendar summary to the right of this pane, if you spot the message Partner? then it means that at least one potential partner is available;  if you spot the message Bookings then it means that at least one partnership has been arranged - but there could be another partner available.  Click on the Partner? or Bookings message to reveal details.
• You can also access documents that are restricted to club members, such as, the agenda and papers for the Club's AGM

If you want to learn to play Bridge, we have two suggestions:

• Some of our individual members do offer private learning and development opportunities.  If you are interested, send us a message via the 'Contact Us' link, which is accessible through the left hand menu
• On the 'Useful Links' page you will find a link to a commercial on-line Bridge Learning experience
