The Peninsula Swiss Pairs Congress was run online by Masterbridge. Nick Fahrer and John McIlrath did a great job organising and promoting our event. We had a record breaking number of entries. At one stage they were coming in at 14 a day! Masterbridge sent very clear instructions were prior to the day but still a few entrants got lost in the morning and never found their way in.
The U100MP Club Pairs Championship was completed on 25th June after 3 weeks in a very close finish despite some administrative difficulties. 13 pairs played in all 3 sessions.
Congratulations to Nick Armitage and Peter Cotton who finished with an average percentage score of 60.5% just ahead of Bronwyn Neal and Simon Hunter on 60.3%.
Thanks to Max Paterson and David Farmer for directing and Max for convening.
You can see the final results here.
Sue Riley on behalf of Peninsula Bridge Club was proud recently to present a cheque for $3,500 to Ken Hughes in his capacity as a representative of our local rural fire brigade. The money raised was from book sales, plant sales and funds raised at our Charity Day held on Wednesday 19 May.
Ken thanked the Club and said that we had been one of their main supporters over many years.
The winner of the 2021 Stebbins competition is Alan Davies. Congratulations!! The runner up was David Farmer.
We would like to encourage participation in this event next year. In the Stebbins competition you play with a different partner each week over 4 weeks. I don’t think people realise how much fun this is. All you have to do is line up 4 different partners.
This is your chance to ask someone for a one-off game and see how it goes. You might find a new long-term partner. Everyone knows that in bridge the hardest part of the game is finding good partners!
The Comms team's goal is to establish effective and efficient communication options (see below) and to support event conveners and others in their use of these options. This support can vary from backup technical advice through to training in how to use a channel through to, where appropriate, the actual work involved in using the channel.

We held a very successful Charity Day on Wednesday 19th May with an attendance of 68 members. The day was both enjoyable for members attending and raised $2086. Together with money held in the charity account from before, the club will be donating $3500 to the Northern Beaches Rural Fire Brigade.
A big thank you to Rob Scott for his entertaining leadership on the day. Rob selflessly decided not to play so he could ensure the day ran smoothly. [Also to Trish Berry who together with Rob organised the event - Ed]
