Suffolk Contract Bridge Association
SUFFOLK’S BIGGEST EVENT?

With 144 players, Café Bridge in Bury St Edmunds on Thursday attracted one of the biggest entries ever for a bridge event staged in Suffolk.

The popular format involved the 72 pairs playing eight three-board rounds in a selection of a dozen cafés and restaurants in the town centre, with scoring done via an a mobile phone app - and lunch taken at half time.

Café Bridge started in this country in south west London and made its debut in Bury St Edmunds only 12 months ago, organised brilliantly by Derek Brinkley.

And the winners were Dorothy and Alaric Cundy, photographed below with their prizes presented by Victor Lesk (left), the brains behind the Café Bridge concept.

Suffolk On-Line Teams League

Seven ‘Seasons.’ Five divisions of five or six teams. More than 350 matches. The Suffolk On-Line Teams League has now been going for over a year…

The overall winners for the first year of the SOTL have been determined, based on “Placing Points” (the number of PPs awarded to each team depends on which division they are in and what position they occupy at the end of each Season). In addition the winners of the Winter League (which could not be played face to face this year) have been determined by PPs in Seasons 5 6 and 7 of the SOTL, held over the winter months. The results were incredibly close!

Overall winners of the SOTL (Seasons 1 to 7)

1st Team Moore, 201.5 PPs: Andrew Moore, Tony Philpott, Jane Moore, Cleopatra Hensby

2nd Team Pryor, 201 PPs: Malcolm Pryor, Karen Pryor, Peter Sutcliffe, Rick Hanley, Michael Sherer

3rd Team Price, 200.5 PPs: David Price, Jenny Price, Chris Chambers, Chris Green

Winter League winners (Seasons 5 to 7 of the SOTL)

1st Team Price, 87.5 PPs; 2nd Team Moore, 86.5 PPs; 3rd Team Pryor, 86 PPs
