Hawks Nest Bridge Club News Of The Area Sport Tea Gardens, Hawks Nest by News Of The Area - Modern Media - February 26, 2020 Jim and Trish Thatcher with President Leslie Falla and Vice-President Bea Treharne. Hawks Nest Bridge Club On Monday 10th February, Linda & Glenn Conroy were first in the N/S position and Handicap Winners. Similarly on Friday 14thFebruary, Jim and Trish Thatcher were in first position N/S and Handicap Winners and the following week Peter Baily and Gordon Morrison achieved the same result. This is relatively difficult to achieve, as the couple coming first often have very good average scores and, to win the Handicap as well, they have to beat their own average scores by a significant amount.

If you asked them why they enjoy playing bridge, they would tell probably you that they enjoy the competition, exercising their brains, and the social aspects of the game. We believe that membership in the Club is increasing for these reasons and because you don’t need to be in tip top physical condition to play, no uniforms are required, and it is an inexpensive pastime. Beginners lessons start on Tuesday 25th February at 6pm. A number of newcomers to bridge, and some relatively new members who wish to refresh their bridge skills, will be meeting every Tuesday evening for two hours of learning. They will be mentored by more experienced players and will learn how to bid, using the Standard American System, how to play the hands, and how to score the results. Perhaps we will see more newcomers doing well in future weeks. Photograph of a beginners lesson at the air-conditioned Clubhouse, taken by Charlie Shuetrim Monday 10th February N/S 1.
