Red Point Opportunities for Novice Pairs - Wednesdays in November
BridgeNSW is sponsoring the Under Hundred Masterpoint (UHMP) Competition, and at Brisbane Water Club it will apply to Wednesday sessions through November. Novice pairs - both under 100 MPt - are invited.
Pairs under 100 MPt from other clubs in our region are also invited.
6th, 13th and 20th November are normal Wednesday "green point" sessions (regular players with over 100 MPts will also play in these sessions as "non-contending").
Results will be sent in to BridgeNSW for assessment and Novice Pairs can earn extra red masterpoints.
27th November will be for Novice Pairs only ... the same boards are played by all participating clubs, results collated and assessed by BridgeNSW and further red points awarded. Best pairs in various categories are also awarded prizes.

Club Individual Champion 2024
Twenty members entered this event where players have a different partner each round ... in this case fifteen different partners for the session.
Individual play can produce unexpected results, and this one was no different ... Novice player Daryll Knowles emerged as winner, with Kathy Ivits and Robin Vaughan tying for second spot.
Daryll has been a club member for only a few months and admits he is still finding his feet at the bridge table. He developed an interest in bridge when on a cruise and joined lessons on board from BWBC members George Boettiger and Matt Raj Mal. Being a Central Coast local he (naturally) joined Brisbane Water BC and is now a Tuesday regular. George playing in this Individual event was trumped by his student!
