Sally Roberts
We are sorry to have to tell you that Sally Roberts passed away on Monday 29th May.
Sally was a long standing and honorary member of the club recognising her major contribution to the success of the club over many years. Sally served on the club committee and throughout her membership was willing to support the club in any way she could. In her later years Sally still played four to five times a week and was always prepared to play with anybody who needed a partner. Sally loved her bridge. She will be missed.
Sally's funeral arrangements
Sally’s funeral will be on Friday 23rd June at York crematorium at 11:00 am.
The funeral cortège will start at YBC at c.10:30 am and members who wish to attend the service are invited to follow from YBC or meet at the crematorium if they prefer. The bridge club will be open from 9:30 for those wanting to arrive early / organise car sharing.
The family have asked for stories from Sally’s playing days (all 60 years worth!).
Please e-mail sgregory@theyorkbridgeclub.com in good time with any you wish to share.

| ASSISTED PLAY |
ADDITIONAL ASSISTED PLAY MORNING SESSION
As well as the regular Thursday evening sessions, from Tuesday 16th May, David Moore will also be hosting a TUESDAY MORNING assisted play session starting at 10:00am.
The assisted sessions are aimed at people who have had a few lessons and are intended to provide practice with help where needed.
There are no “lessons” as such. Players don’t need a partner, but you can come with a partner if you’d prefer.
The sessions are not scored and it’s fine to use crib sheets etc.
They cost £5 per session for members or £6 for non-members (all the money goes to the club).
Please contact David Moore (yorkmoores@yahoo.co.uk) if you would like further information.
