NEBA Trophy
The East District team beat the North East of England by 25 imps to retain the Newcastle Journal Bridge Challenge Cup. The winning team was Dee Harley & Eric Nolf, Derrick Peden & Malcolm McArdle, Fiona McQuaker & George Plant, Patrick Home and Iain Sime.
There is simultaneously a match played with the same predealt boards for the Edinburgh Salver. The teams playing in it should include improving players with also a ladies and junior pair if available.
This year the ED were represented with Lucia Barrett & Laura Middleton, Anna St Clair & Anthony Bates; John Hamilton & Fiona Lawson and Anne Perkins & Julia Palmer. NEBA got off to a flying start winning the first two stanzas and were +80 imps. The ED fought back winning the 3rd and 4th but lost overall by 39imps NEBA retaining the Salver. An enjoyable day at a midway venue at Berwick Bridge Club was had by all.
