The Bridge Zone

The Bridge Zone is a half-hour slot on topical bridge news hosted by Barry Jones and Mereana Cullen of Hamilton Bridge Club.  

Free FM, the community radio, is broadcasting on 89FM and the show will go out twice a week - Wednesdays at 10.30am and repeated Thursdays at 6.30am.  The live show will only stretch around the Waikato as the volunteers undertaking the work are based in Hamilton so have learnt to put a radio show together and broadcast there.

The podcast from the show will go onto the NZB facebook page and the NZB website. You can hear the latest or all broadcasts of The Bridge Zone by clicking on this link.

The idea behind the show is to engender interest and engage and enthuse the everyday player by looking at the local, regional, national and international bridge scene in New Zealand.

This is another of Jane's brainwaves and she hopes you enjoy the show and this new initiative.  It will run as a six month trial and then listener numbers and feedback will be reviewed to see whether to continue.
