Email us – media@newsofthearea.com.au Our President, Leslie Falla, has recently led a series of lessons for those new to bridge as he has done in previous years. Undeterred by the restrictions of coronavirus, he has harnessed the power of the Internet and used Zoom and online bridge games to support the usual lessons and teaching notes. 24 students have participated, helped by a small group of mentors. Students now have the opportunity to participate in the Club Bridge Base Online games and, using Zoom, review the hands, which have been uploaded to our website, with their mentor to improve their play. Well done Leslie and his support team for continuing to develop our Club in these challenging times! Interestingly, the Club has also gained some new members from out of the area – indeed, out of state! – who want to continue playing club tournaments but do not have the opportunity to do so with their local club and have friends and contacts in our Club. All are welcome! Results Monday 3 August N/S 1. Tony Woodford and Sam Kebby 2. Carol Richards and Sue Matheson 3. Glenn and Linda Conroy E/W 1 Chez Rands and Leslie Falla 2.
