We are so excited to welcome nearly 100 members and partners to our Harrogate Bridge Club Holiday. If you are attending, please don’t forget to let Oliver Cowan (ocbridgecomps@gmail.com) if you want to play in the student section. Also, everyone needs to provide their menu choices for the gala dinner.
Tuesday 7 April - 7pm to 9.30pm - Mentored Pairs
This event will attract master points but there will be no impact on NGS. It is free for mentors and £4.80 for students; payable on the day. Please sign up at the club or email the chairman . We need more mentors - please support it if you can.
Sunday 12 April - 10am to 12.30pm and 1.30pm to 4.00pm - Abbey Smith Masterclass
Following on from two very successful masterclasses last year, Abbey has agreed to run another one at our club. There are two sessions costing £15 each; £30 in total:
10.00am - 12.30pm Defending against 3-level pre-empts
1.30pm - 4.00pm Protective seat after 1NT opening bid

Thursday 16 April - 1.30pm - Championship Teams - No host available
This is one of our club competitions. The winners will be recognised at our AGM and receive an award. You can turn up as a team of four - there are no restrictions. In order to be eligible to be called a winner, all team members must be members of our club. Visitors are allowed to participate.
You can turn up as a pair and be teamed up on the day; only if other pairs also turn up without a team. There is no host pair available (unless two members want to volunteer). If there isn’t an even number of pairs turning up without a team, the last complete pair arriving will have to go home.
Sunday 26 April - 1.30pm to 5.30pm - Mentored Novice Pivot Teams, West Midlands Bridge Club, Solihull
Teams should consist of a mentor and 3 students with up to 4 years playing experience and with less than 2,500 master points. Cost is £24.00 per team = £8.00 per student to include tea and coffee. I recommend this great event for students. Please sign up at our Bridge Club or the chairman.
