Congratulations to
Tim Rees, Mike Perkins, Ian Reissmann, Peter Hawkes and John Howard
who beat Chris Burley's team to win the Crowhurst Quaich for the County Teams of Four Championship after a qualifying round and three knock-out matches.

They qualify to represent Berks and Bucks in the Pachabo Cup competition for the champion team from each County.

Tim Rees was a member of the team which won the Schapiro Spring Foursomes at Stratford-on -Avon during the May Bank Holiday weekend.  The Spring Foursomes is the strongest weekend event in the British bridge calendar, with most of the top English players taking part plus visitors from about 12 other countries.

The Veterans' prize went to Amanda Hawthorn and Charles King-Farlow although Chris and Ron were also the leading Veteran pair
