Our Novice Pairs Championship event finished today, with 32 pairs competing over 2 weeks, playing 8 matches. What a great turnout. The winners were Penny Roberts and Ian Davis, with Carol Smith and Glenn Chapman runners up. In third place was Barb Allen and Mark Cordato. Congratulations to all and thanks to the team making it possible, director Dave and coordinator Robbie plus all the helpers, particularly Brenda busy behind the scenes.

We were very lucky today to have a visit from “bridge royalty”, aka Peter Gill and Liz Sylvester . Both Peter and Liz are frequent members of the Australian Open team, but today they teamed up with Di Blount and Prue Adams to compete against brother John with his partner Mike Stawski. Even before play started sibling rivalry was evident with both brothers sitting east in direct competition 😀 Peter and Di ended up the winners with John and Mike a close second, Liz and Prue had an enjoyable afternoon, and we all benefitted by their lovely friendly company and willingness to share their expertise. Thank you both for coming and we look forward to seeing you at our club again.

🤔good question! It has been said that our bridge partner is as important as our marital partner, and it doesn’t matter if you know the name of every convention, or every form of Roman Keycard Blackwood, if your partnership is no good then you are in big trouble. So what matters most ? I would say keep your partner happy 😀

( President Barb struggling to keep a straight face) A big congratulations also to Carol Smith and Glen Chapman for improving their ranking to win our most improved pair. Well done 😀

Empowered with my new Japanese zen philosophy, could we incorporate this into our bridge game 🤔
