Huddersfield A and C Teams welcomed Brighouse Buccaneers and Crusaders with the shared members on both clubs’ teams adding to the competitiveness. I am pleased to report that after a huge final round our A team snatched a victory from the jaws of defeat, winning 13-7 with the C Team also winning but this time much more comfortably at 20-0. Star players for the A Team Ken and Betty Baxter, and Pam Hall and Alan Stephenson. Star players for the C Team David Ford and Marco Corradi. Also Linda Tempest and Brian Faichney
The third derby was an away match for our B team who made the short journey to play Shelley B and returned with a 16-4 victory to remain undefeated this season. Star players Nigel and Maria Walker.
The D Team continued their bridge education with an 18-2 defeat at home to Ilkley C.
Thank you to everyone who took part, baked something to share and a special thank you to Ann Bailey ( Head Tea Lady) and Margaret Gill ( Trainee Tea Lady) who came in especially to help with the catering at teatime.
We are thinking of selling tickets for the next A Team home game as we are expecting a large crowd because Lew Clark is baking a cake and no one will want to miss that, despite diets probably starting in the new year!
Until then, enjoy a well-earned rest from league bridge which starts again on Sunday 18th Feb 2024.
