NZ Bridge held a 5A Open Swiss Pairs on Matariki Day. This was a fundraiser to raise funds for our international players. New Zealand’s top bridge players have the skill, the dedication, and the drive to compete internationally — but getting there isn’t cheap. Unlike other countries where elite play is fully funded, our players have to fund most of their expenses out of their own pockets. Donations can be made at https://givealittle.co.nz/org/nz-bridge-foundation. Congratulations to Stephen Francks & Marcus Dudley who came 12th out of a large field of 78 pairs.
