Teams Events
We have two events coming up that we’ve not tried before. They might be perfect for you and your partner.
There are brief details below and there will be more details close to the date. And they are FREE….
Friendly online teams’ match - BBO at 19.00 on Wednesday 9th April
- We are looking for anyone and everyone that would like to play.
- Our opponents can put together 8 teams (that’s 8 teams of 4 people, 32 in total) so this is a great opportunity for lots of you to take part.
- Just 16 boards so it will probably take about 2-2 ½ hours.
Inter-club Tournament teams of eight 11.00 on Saturday 29th March, Patcham
- All-day event played face to face by teams of 8 people, club versus club.

We are sorry to report the death of Chris Ponsford who died peacefully on Thursday 27th Feb.

| Mike Palmer |
We are sorry to report the death of Mike Palmer on the 19th February, following a short stay in hospital. He had not been in good health for a while but continued to play bridge online and at the club with his much-loved dog, Truffle, always nearby. A retired GP, Mike was an excellent bridge player and an amusing table companion. He attained the rank of 3-star Regional Master. Our thoughts are with his family and friends. Mike's funeral will be held at 2:30pm on Tuesday 8th April at Chichester Crematorium.

| Anne Dudley-Smith |
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Anne Dudley-Smith on Friday 7th February at Manor Barn in Fishbourne following a stroke in January. Anne was a remarkable lady and a fine bridge player, competitive but always fair who had numerous partners over the years. If Anne asked you to partner her, you knew you’d “made” it. Before coming to Chichester, she was a stalwart at Thame BC in Oxfordshire.
Anne's funeral will be held on 13th March at 1.30pm at St Peter & St Mary's Church, Fishbourne. Afterwards in the adjoining Church Hall, all welcome.
