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 Betsy Baillie and Delton Outerbridge, our Junior Pairs champions for 2017.
They won the first session and built on that lead winning the second session comfortably to take the title. Richard Keane and Mike Viotti had two good rounds for second place. 13 pairs entered, and all contributed to a successful and enjoyable championship.
Congratulations to our first champions of 2017 - Gertie Barker and Jane Smith successfully defending their Ladies' Pairs title, while Alan Douglas with Delmont Simmons came from behind to win the Men's title. Well done to all participants, and particularly those more junior players who came out and gave a good account of themselves in tough fields.
A fun session, held Wednesday morning. Peter Donnellan directing. The club decorations looking fabulous, and our youth team from Italy joined us during their christmas break from University. This was a celebration of our youth Birgde program, and with a lot of people away, we were still able to manage 10 1/2 tables. After the game, the festive spread was fabulous, and included soups, cheese, chilli, ham, smoked salmon, sandwiches, and also lots of scrumptious cookies and a special cholcolate cake!! Thanks from us all for those putting together the game, and most of all the delictables afterwards.
