NEW playing session on Tuesday nights 7-9pm
Just letting you know that our NEW Tuesday evening session has started! Our new learners will be playing at this time rather than coming along on a Wednesday night initially.
If you would like a chance to play some bridge in a relaxed atmosphere, please do come along! There will be a member available to play with anyone who does not have a partner so all you need to do is to pitch up at 7 on any Tuesday between now and the end of November.
From July, there will be a bridge tip presented at 7pm. This will either be a bidding recap or a card play tip.
The Great Boat Race
is coming up. Keep watching for more information!

Beth trumps the Intermediate champs!
It was wonderful to see a larger field partake the intermediate champs once again. The larger numbers were also due to some juniors taking part. It was a nail biting leadership board going into the final night with about six players in the running.
Diane and Jenny make their own royal performance
Di had a winning week striking three successes in a row! Congratulations to her and Jenny who won the Te Awamutu restricted competition overall and in their section (Open - Intermediate) on Saturday. They had a winning morning and did enough in the afternoon to achieve a clear win. In the same tournament, Marlene Morey and her partner came first in the Intermediate/ Intermediate section.Well done to both pairs!
