The Rogers Trophy is won by Wendy and Gwyn!

Wendy Lake and former President, Gwyn Roberts, produced an excellent session of Bridge to capture The Rogers Trophy with an adjusted score of 58.84%. They were followed home by Chief TD Andy Cove and the evergreen Mamie Heyworth, who is now in her 96th year, who registered 56%! Current President Olive Somerville and her partner, Roger Moore, picked up the 3rd place Prize Money with 55%. 12 pairs played in a very close competition which saw 4 pairs within 4% of each other at the top.  Peter Plant and Paul Holgate had the highest gross percentage (62.22%)but lost out when the handicaps were applied. Another great night....and thanks again, Andy, for the excellent organisation!.

The Spring Social was a huge success!
 The Spring Social, held on May 23, was a huge success once again with a full house enjoying a wonderful buffet, an excellent evening's Bridge and some pleasant conversation.

Before the competition we sat down for the wonderful food provided by the ladies of the Club, which was absolutely first class.....how you ladies can produce such a great spread for so little cost is beyond me.....excellent!

14 tables competed in the Bridge with Club Chairman, Tony Murphy and his wife, Pat, winning the North/ South section with 61.94%, followed by Dagmar Fazackerley and John Duxbury on 60%.....and  it was great to see Geoff and Mary Gibbons winning a couple of boxes of chocolates in 3rd....well done you two!

Mike Somerville and Terry Bunn blew the opposition away in the East/West section with a huge 70.28% ! You could understand runners up Gwyn Roberts and Gordon Acton, and 3rd placed George Winstanley and Mary Irving feeling somewhat bemused as their percentages would easily have most other competitions!

A huge thank you to the ladies for the excellent buffet, to Keith Bates for purchasing all the prizes and a big thank you to Tournament Director, Andy Cove (who is currently sporting the biggest smile ever since Blackpool fought their way into the Premiership!) for the brilliant organisation!

Mamie, Dagmar, John and Andy win the Alan Barker Teams' Trophy
95 year-young Mamie Heyworth is a winner yet again, this time playing with Dagmar Fazackerley, Andy Cove and John Duxbury to take The Alan Barker Teams' Trophy. Despite a handicap of -40 the Team still finished 42 IMPS ahead of their nearest rivals, Lily Harrison, Gwyn Roberts, Terry Bunn and Mike Somerville. It was nice to see Sue Gott and Lesley Cooper, from last year's Beginners' Class, take 3rd prize alongside Team players Ruth Holt and Dave Johnston. Geoff and Mary Gibbons, who played with Diane Newark and Jackie Hales were a commendable 4th.
