Individual Competition on Sunday 2nd March |
We are running the club's annual Individual Competition on Sunday 2nd March at 1pm, at the clubhouse. The winner receives the Thompson trophy.
This is a fun and sociable event when you enter as an individual and play with a different partner in every round. Everyone plays the same simple basic ACOL system (no 5-card majors). Members of a wide range of abilities are very welcome to take part - the main criterion is that you can play at a pace of 7-8 minutes per board.
See this page for further details and the entry form. Numbers are limited, as we need to make sure that we don't end up with a fraction of a table, so if you're keen to take part, please book early!
