We ended up with 24 tables at the PBC Swiss Pairs Congress on Sunday 29 July, which was a bit disappointing. Perhaps the middle of winter is not the best time for a congress?
Nonetheless the event was very well received by those that did participate. Ronnie Ng did a great job as director and everything went very smoothly. Volunteer caterer Cassandra Mitchell provided wonderful food all day which was much appreciated.
The winners were Peter Jeffrey and Yimin Lee ahead of runners-up David Hudson and Paul Lavings. The Novice Prize (under 100) went to Sarah Young and Rob Scott and the best Peninsula Pair was Vivien Eldridge and David Farmer. Check the full results on the Bridge Australia congress site or on our own website.
You can check the photos of the day mainly thanks to our volunteer photographer, Heidi Colenbrander.
Thanks to Jen Ardill and Nerida Gillies which were the stand-by pair and ended up playing due to a late cancellation. Thanks also to Pia who doubled as caddy and kitchen assistant.
