Anna, Di, Jane and Michael begin their 2019 GCC quest
Update - Tuesday
Anna and partner Charlotte got off to a cracking start by qualifying for the Intermediate final section. While they did not finish in a podium spot, neither did they finish last in the toughest section in their field. Well done them!
Time to sign up for Fairlands 2019
The annual battle with Te Awamutu bridge club for the Fairlands Trophy is planned for 17 March in Te Awamutu. If you are available to play that afternoon (exact time to be confirmed), please sign the clipboard in the club rooms. We are seeking members at any stage in their bridge career to take part. Te Awamutu does not have as many members at the moment and it makes it more fun to pitch teams of similar abilities.
Cambridge players feature in the 1st WAPS of the year
Cambridge hosted 19 tables on Sunday; the director's nightmare of a table number but Dallas and Mike worked their wonder and everyone soon settled in to a day's bridge while the sun shone outside! Thank you to Vicki and Liz who were on standby but got the joy of clearing up morning tea instead!
Monday and Wednesday teams
The themes for the two team events have been announced!
Monday night starting the 25th February. C for Cambridge. Using the letter C as a starter come up with some C ideas for dress up!
Wednesday night starting the 8th May Dots and Spots.
If you havn' t a team organised for either of these events start thinking now! Clare can help if you are stuck for members.
Let the fun begin!

Do join us in the Cambridge club rooms for the first of the six competitions that makes up the Waikato Area Pairs. Players of all levels are welcome. There is a (small) monetary prize for the best non-Open pair as well as the overall winners on the day, as well as of course the coveted A point to play for each session!
Cambridge members attending are asked to bring something tasty along to share with our guests for morning tea.
All you need to bring is:
Congratulations to those who have made the grade for 2019!
The NZB gradings have been adjusted and I am pleased to be able to announce the following:
Well done to Beth Kingsley and Irenee Stewart who are now both Intermediate players.
Wednesday night hosting
It is lovely to see a full room of people, enjoying their bridge, on Wednesday night.
BUT we need hosts for Wednesday nights so that anyone can turn up and be guaranteed with a game of bridge.
This is a good opportunity to play with different people, and to get to know others in our club. You also play for free (then or at another time if you are not needed)!
If you are able to host on a Wednesday, please put your name down on the clipboard at the club. It is much appreciated if you can help out in this manner. Thank you.
Anne
