🏆 That’s a stellar showing from Steve Hunt and Sue Keating! Winning both the morning and afternoon sessions and taking the overall title at the Matamata Intermediate Bridge Tournament is no small feat. Their consistency across the day was extremely impressive.
 

👏 Hats off as well to Nandy Costa and Denise Whybrow for clinching 4th overall—top-tier placement in a competitive field.

Well played them!

On behalf of Cambridge Bridge club, I am extremely sorry that we are announcing a change in the results of the Cambridge Sixes.  This is the first time in its history that I can recall this has been necessary.  The adjustment has occurred due to the players at one table sitting in the wrong directions for the first round of the day.

Whether you helped for all of the day, part of the day, donated generously to the raffle, baked, made savouries, helped setup or pack up, assisted with the planning of the event or played- or all of the above- the committee wanted to say a HUGE THANK YOU.  Without the generosity of the club members, the event would be a shadow of its amazing self.  There is simply no other tournament like it in terms of its offerings: great bridge, fabulous food all day, tantalising trivia, unbeatable raffle and dastardly dressup! 

It was wonderful to be able to congratulate Cambridge players on the stage yesterday.  After a middling morning, Don and Irenee found their feet and came romping home in second place.  Well done to them!

A reminder that the Karapiro dam is shut so you need to cross the river in Cambridge if travelling from Auckland direction or at Horahora travelling from the South.

Remember to bring cash to be in to win one of our amazing 35 gift hampers…..And a water bottle

Cambridge Sixes – Play starts at 9.30am, Saturday 9 August

We have closed off entries with 32 Teams.  As we must have an even number of teams please ensure you can cover any sickness in your team should it occur

A big thank you to all the people who helped organise and support this big event on Sunday 22 June. Ian and Pam organised venue, helpers and players. Jan did an amazing job scoring, in spite of my best effort to cause confusion at the start putting teams in the wrong place! Nick Saunders outdid himself directing a large room patiently and kindly.  Beth did all the dealing of the multiple boards. Ian T and Bill were willing caddies. And special thanks to our new learner members who did a great job helping in the kitchen and to those members who ensured no player went hungry.

back to Cambridge club rooms thanks to some great play by Cambridge club members - and not necessarily who you would pick to do well! The top seven pairs were made up of Cambridge members, headed by Pam Moore and Allison Smith, Mathew and Karen, Beth and Josie.  Also noteworthy is return learner Bernice Q and Tony finishing 6th with nearly 60%.
