This was a highly successful event, with 14 tables participating in good humour, and playing some great Bridge.

Winning pairs were Lynn Munn with Dennis Loynes, and Val Ridding with Ian McAlroy.  Some measure of the success of the format is that two years ago, Ian was playing (and winning!) as an Am!

Photos of the winners with WCBA Chairman Mike Willoughby are here.

Wall James Chappell sponsorship for the Worcestershire Contract Bridge Association (WCBA) annual Swiss Pairs Championship was very successful. The event was held on the 29th of October at the St John's Sports Centre in Worcester and was packed to capacity with bridge players from the Midlands areas. The result was close victory for the pair of Andy King & Peter Litchfield who managed to win by just two victory points in a keenly fought and tight event. Congratulations to the winners pictured above. The WCBA are very appreciative of the support that Wall James Chappell provides to this annual Worcestershire bridge event. Worcestershire Bridge is part of the UK initiative to promote bridge as a mind sports game suitable for all ages - a great game that gives both young and old the facility to be active both mentally and socially. WCBA is raising funds to acquire it own venue in order to provide educational and training facilities as well as improved playing conditions for bridge in the county.

The WCBA are also appreciative of the sponsorship by Bridge Overseas of the Swiss Teams Championship which was held on the 30th of October. Congratulations to the winners, John Atthey, Janine Griffiths-Baker, James Thrower & Phil Godfrey.

The No Fear/Intermediate Pairs was won by Kathy MacLaren & Richard Arrowsmith.

Thanks to the Congress Committee of Joyce Skelton, Martin Gill & Mike Vetch plus all the other volunteers who made the Malvern Congress a success.

A large contingent of Worcestershire players attended the SBU Overseas Congress in Dubrovnik. Last year Tony Gervis challenged the Scots to a bridge championship and they took us on. We won comfortably. He was elected captain and as such now has the title “Captain of the English Bridge Team “ !!! The players dressed in red and white as can be seen from the photos and the trophy was “The Ashes“, being the ashes of two packs of cards. All good fun and a super Congress.
