Competition Winners - Best Yearly Averages with Recent History Explained

The table below shows the winners for the best average score on each of the Club sessions after COVID.

Notice, particularly, the increased sessions available showing Club growth & diversity. No accolades were given in the preceding missing years as explained below.

The 2019 /2020 season was cut short by the COVID epidemic,with the last session taking place on the 17th March 2020. Bridge at Wakefield started again on 10th August 2020 as an on-line version on a Monday evening initially. In September 2020, Monday morning & Thursday evenings sessions were restarted again, but on-line. Tuesday evenings were also restarted at the same time, but under the guise of the newly formed Oliver Cowan Bridge Club. It was with Oliver's help, assistance & expertise that we played at all on-line. This continued until 19th July 2021, when COVID restrictions were lifted & we were able to meet up in groups indoors. Initially the Tuesday sessions were run in conjunction with the Oliver Cowan Bridge Club on-line session, who has since gone on to build a successful on-line Bridge Club business, but eventually towards the end of the year 2021, we started to run our own F2F (face to face) sessions.

Prior to this cups were given out to the individual winners (or pairs) of any individual nights competitions or special events. As time went along our members elected to not want to be presented with the cups, and these were scrapped in 2021. The individual sessions competitions within the club remains though, in the guise of a table of honour, whereas, the special events have disappeared.
