Congratulations to the following members who will be representing our club in this year’s Waikato Interclub teams on Sunday 23 June 2019:

OPEN: JANE, DI, MIKE AND DON

INTERMEDIATES: BETH, LIZ, IRENEE AND LEONIE

JUNIORS: KAY HANNA, GRETCHEN, BARBARA ANDREWS AND DAVE TAYLOR RESERVES: CHRIS AND HENNIE VAN EMPEL

We wish them well in this year’s competition.

Go Cambridge!

What a delight it was to find Kate and Gwyn at the top of the ladder when I browsed the results this evening.  They did brilliantly winning six out of six matches.  Well done to them! It must have been thrilling sitting at the top of the room in 2nd place for the penultimate two rounds and sneaking in a win in the final one. Go girls!

Cambridge did not shine as a whole in the Matamata WAPs but it was fabulous to see Cambridge feature in the afternoon session.  Beth and Irenee come equal top E-W along with Michael and Ella - with 58.65% - awarding them with an A point in a hefty field of Open players.  Well done to all of them!

Congratulations to Irenee and Calum for wining the Intermediate pair section and coming third overall at the Putaruru Restricted today after coming 1st EW in the morning and 3rd NS in the afternoon.

In the office we have a  Brother MFC-7340 Printer and an AOC LCD monitor which are no longer in use. If anyone would like to make an offer on these please see Liz.

Congratulations to Michael and his partner, Ella (Hamilton club), who won the Senior Interprovincial trials and will therefore be representing Waikato Bays along with Karen Martelletti and Julie Sheridan later in the year,

Bad luck to Kevin who was also in the running with his partner, Malcolm, until the last couple of rounds.

Last year Jane and Di represented Waikato Bays in the women's section and did us proud by coming  2nd in their section but this year neither of last year's Women's representative pairs entered.

Congratulations to Allison Vince and Sue Aitken and Kay Hanna and Gretchen Gavey who came second and third respectively at the Matamata Junior tournament on Saturday.  Also to Hennie and Chris van Empel who were first north south in the morning - well done to you all.

Cambridge was well represented at Hamilton’s annual women’s tournament on Tuesday with one third of the Intermediate section players coming from Cambridge.  We were all delighted when Helen Hicks and Margaret Oliver got a morning session prize and then even more thrilled to find that Anne and Liz, who were second in their section in the morning, had come first in the afternoon session and were overall winners with an average of 61.06, well ahead of the second pair on 57.1.

Playing at another club, it was a reminder on a number of fronts as to how lucky we are in Cambridge with our bridge club.

Huge congratulations to Liz and Anne winning the Intermediate Ladies Day in Hamilton. In a larger field than the Open Section, they finished strong with a big 65% score in the afternoon. Well done to them!

Also bringing home a session prize in this field were Helen Hicks and Margaret Oliver for their morning session of 56.67%. Finishing in the top 10 were Vicki and Gail, also on form.

In the Open section, Lynette Morgan won top prize along with Sonia Crawford. Also in the running in 5th place were Jane and Di.
