And from 1 September, all afternoon sessions will revert to 1pm starting time. As usual, we appreciate everyone being seated 10 -15 minutes before all sessions to arrange the movement.
Any excuse for a bit of fun, exactly that was had on Wednesay 12 July 2023 when GLBC members celebrated a winter Xmas. Scrumptious food, some bubby and friendly chats kicked off the morning, followed by a Hi-Lo game that was a tad more vibrant than usual. Thanks to organisers and providers for a lovely day.
We're pleased to announce that our club and its wonderful volunteers Shirley & Sylvia will run a series of lessons for our 'post-kindergarten' players (in fact, anyone under 100 Masterpoints) on Tuesdays 2 - 4pm. Each series will run for 3 weeks and cover specific bidding sequences as well as declarer and defence play.
Are you or someone you know interested in becoming more involved in the running of our wonderful club? Nominations are now open for GLBC Executive and Committee positions. All positions are available: President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant Treasurer, Tournament Director, Master Points Secretary plus five Committee members.
Nomination forms are available on the clubhouse noticeboard. If the number of nominations received:
Come along with bells jingling to our Christmas in July party on Wednesday 12 July 2023, starting at 11am. Lunch will be finger food - bring a plate to share (sweet or savoury) and a drink - and let the yuletide merriment abound!
Many of our GLBC members travel to compete in congresses and competitions, often punching above their weight. The NSW Bridge Association State Seniors Championships, held in Gosford from 30 May to 2 June 2023, has seen Megan Grant and Barbara Williams (pictured) placing a hard-fought third in a very tough field of 32 pairs.
Congratulations to the overall winners of our recent two-week Autumn Pairs 2023 event — N/S Barbara Williams & Megan Grant; and E/W — Karl & Jill Buchmann. Congratulations also go to the runners up: N/S — Pauline Erby & Gil Clarke and E/W — Maeve Doyle & Bronwyn Boehm.
From 1 May 2023, afternoon bridge games will commence half an hour earlier at 12:30pm. Directors ask that all players please be seated by 12:15pm.
These altered times will continue through until the end of September 2023.
There is no alteration to starting times for morning sessions.
