BRILLIANT RESULTS FROM THE EBU SUMMER CONGRESS IN EASTBOURNE 2022

Very many congratulations to Tony Verran and his partner who came equal first in the prestigious Harold Poster Swiss Pairs at Eastbourne this year, beating many well-known international players in a field of 116 over 2 days of intense bridge. Congratulations also to Anne Catchpole and Phil Mattacks - they had a brilliant 6th place finish in the same competition last year, and this year they combined again to finish in the top third of a very strong field, another great result.

ESSEX MIXED TEAMS AND OTHER ESSEX COMPETITIONS

The Essex Mixed Teams competition was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 so the 2019 winners - Cathy Macnaughton, Maureen Walker, Ian Yeats and Paul Hickson - are still the reigning Champions!

The up to date position on all Essex competitions can be found on the ECBA website and we also have a link to the calendar for London Competitions on the London Metropolitan Bridge Association website - see the "Useful Links" tab above for both

DO take care of your personal grooming
