You rang, M’Lord!
On Thursday 3rd July three of our students from the Youth Academy, Bertie, Bethany and Levente went down to the House of Lords to play against The House of Lords Bridge Team. They were joined by Sophie from Durham, a member of the Under 16 England Squad and teams from three other schools.
The students had a wonderful day which was funded for by the English Bridge Educational and Development charity and the Yorkshire Bridge Contract Association and was a reward for their success at the National Championships in March when Bertie, Bethany and Levente were part of a team of 4 who came 3rd in the Hugh Scully Cup behind the England Squad and European Champions.
