Mackay Bridge Welcomes New Players

New Mackay Bridge players took the leap to play in their first Sunday Novice pairs competition having only recently completed lessons.

Youngsters Jaiden and Jarek Taylor won North/South, with Mary Rose Ramsden and Carmel Brown winning East/West.

Cheryl Machen played and won a slam hand, a highly sought-after hand for seasoned players.

Thanks to Frances Brown, Geoff Taylor and all who helped with lessons this year.
