The classes for new bridge players from Sept. to December were a great success and we look forward to meeting these novice players in the clubs during the next few weeks. Clonmel Bridge Centre is indebted to the team of Deirdre Ormonde, Marie Cotter, Ann O’Reilly and Anne Darmody who conducted these classes.
Monday Morning bridge runs every Monday from 10.00 -12.00 and this has proved invaluable for all those who want to improve and practise their bridge, as well, of course, as being a wonderful way of spending a Monday morning in mid winter.
The season from Sept.-Dec. was a very busy one for all of the clubs, culminating in the play for Christmas prizes in each club.
