Bridge 3rd October -- Mavis Drake Teams Trophy
Bridge 3rd October -- Mavis Drake Teams Trophy


Congratulations to the winners of the Mavis Drake Teams Trophy, Saroj & Alan and Andy & Dave, who came first with a score of +59 IMPs. They are pictured above, being presented the trophy by Mavis.

It  was very close at the top, with the second-placed team of Angela & Richard and Colin & Paul just 3 IMPs behind.

The dealing machine did us proud with plenty of big hands — ideal for a teams event scored with IMPs.  There were a number of slams bid and made (on boards 10, 12, 27 and 28) and a couple that got away... not to mention quite a number of penalty doubles, two of which resulted in very large penalties (on boards 7 and 22).

The biggest score on the night was 16 IMPs on board 26 (a double game swing) and there was another double game swing for a mere 14 IMPs on board 6.
