We are a members' club and the principal bridge club on our beautiful island. We run an open, stratified duplicate game on Monday afternoon, Wednesday morning, Thursday evening and Friday afternoon.
A very belated celebration of Tony Saunders’ 90th birthday, which occurred last year when the Club was closed. Yesterday, 10th February, was Tony’s 91stbirthday, so we all enjoyed a glass of Prosecco in celebration. Tony and Wendy are standing in front of the Senior Player of the Year Board, and you can see that Tony won this in 1968. 1969, 1972, 1999 & 2000 – quite an achievement!
We were very fortunate to be able to hold the Ernie Owen Championship at the Club on the 16th December, just before the Club had to close again after the Omicron variant started to take hold in Bermuda. 40 people attended, with all sorts of Christmas headgear and sweaters, and much fun was had by all, especially after Judy K’s Proseccos!
The winner was announced whilst we were enjoying cheese & biscuits and mince pies and it was - Richard Gray!
Let’s hope it won’t be too long before we can be back at the Club and seeing each other again in a similar sociable way..
"Bridge in Schools" classes are up and running on Tuesday lunch time at Warwick on Teams - great to see them playing in these not so ideal times.
The ACBL recently held a Youth Event, the “Red Point Youth Valentine Pairs” on Saturday February 13th. Daque Davis, and Ahzjanai Smith played in that event. There were 7 tables. Daque and Ahzjanai came second east west with a 62% game. A wonderful result, as some of the pairs are very strong.
