Announcement re New Zealand International Teams

HONG KONG
The APBF bridge Championships start in two weeks  on 9th June. Our Open, Women and Mixed teams are all set to go - we wish them well. Following the Championships, all three teams will compete in the Zone 7 play-offs against Australia. This is a one day event which satisfies the WBF requirements to play at the World Champs in Morocco .Two teams from Zone 7 qualify - so if we lose - we still go! Last week we played the Seniors play-off, on-line,  resulting in a meritorious draw- 113 all. 
 
The teams are: 
OPEN
Michael Cornell and Ashley Bach
Michael Whibley and Matthew Brown
Martin Reid and Peter Newell
 
WOMEN
Christine Gibbons and Jenna Gibbons
Carol Richardson and Andi Boughey

We are sending Open, Women and Mixed teams to the World Champs in Morocco on 20th Aug to Sept 2nd. Arrangements are well under-way, with many players taking the opportunity to do some extra travel while overseas.
 
There is a change in the Mixed team. The Fishers have withdrawn due to Liz having medical issues. They have been replaced by Jenny Millington and Barry Jones. We all wish Liz a full and speedy recovery.
