The Club sadly notes the passing of our member Rodney Harris. Rodney, whose home club was Morrinsville, was a long time Wednesday night player and suddenly passed away during the week. We extend our sympathy to Rodney's family, friends and members of the Morrinsville Bridge Club

If you indeed have one of those difficult bridge questions or need playing advice then
join Barry or Ella every Tuesday after afternoon bridge.
From 4 thru 5pm one or both will be at the club-rooms for advice or to answer your questions

2019 Subscriptions

Submitted by Dave on Tue, 05/03/2019 - 16:45


Our piggy bank is not bottomless and unfortunately needs an occasional "top up" - the Club has an expensive building to maintain....

Your subs form a large part of the Clubs income and were due at the end of February. There is rather a high percentage of subs still outstanding so if you fit this category can you please pay......

Thanks

9 members from the club gave a morning and afternoon demonstration of the game at Chartwell Square ahead of this years bridge lessons. Thanks to the morning players Stephen Weir,Janice Wilton,Stephen Baptist and Sonya Roberts and to the afternoon players Mark Thomson,Karen Harper,Shaun Hewitt and Trini Lin.
The day was organised and managed by Karen Thomson who was able to take a number of names and emails of people keen to learn. Lindsay Reid called by to give his support.
A good day all round.

Didn't we do well !

Have you noticed the "shortage" of Open players & Grand Masters around the Club this last week ?
If you did and wondered where were they had gone the simple answer is the Gold Coast in Queensland playing bridge at the week long Gold Coast Congress. Results in the pairs were hard to come by but in the Teams members of the Club have done very well competing in a field of 212 Teams - you can read about it on this page from NZ Bridge Site

Click here to read about how NZers placed in the Teams

The NZ Bridge site doesn't mention all those from the Club playing - numerous other members are at the Congress and you can check their progress here
