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.
Congratulations to Elizabeth McKee and Linda Pollett on winning the Ladies' Pairs Championship 2022. A very tight finish, decided on the last board, with Jane Smith and Gertie Barker taking second place only half a matchpoint behind. Thanks to all 12 pairs who took part.
On Monday afternoon, we all enjoyed a lovely cake, baked by Lynanne in celebration of Peter's birthday.
The first Club Championship after the long hiatus of Covid was held on Saturday 23 April when a small field contested the Non-Life Masters Championship. After two hard-fought sessions, the championship was secured by Marion and Duncan Silver, pipping Rosie Smith and Nikki Boyce to the post by less than one board.
Congratulations to the champions, and thanks to all who came out to play in the event.
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!
