| OBA County Teams Results 2023-24 |
Please CLICK TO READ a report which has been written to describe the performance of the OBA teams during the 2023-24 season, and also describe the process for selection for the 2023-24 year for the Tollemache Cup qualifier.
Congratulations to the B Team players who have won the Porter League and now go on to represent the Midlands Counties in the national final. A selection will be announced shortly for this team. The final will be held on Sunday 2nd June 2024.
I should also highlight to you the achievements of some Oxfordshire players over the Easter Festival. In the Swiss Teams Graham Orsmond was in the winning team, and also being placed very high were Charlie Bucknell, Diana Nettleton, Lawrence Wang and Chun-Ting Lau. In the Swiss pairs there were creditable performances from Diana Nettleton, Lawrence Wang and Yining Yang in a strong field.
Meanwhile the Thursday Pairs Ladder has finished for the six months to March 2024 and the top three finishers were as follows:
|
Matthew Covill and Chris Wilson
|
115
|
|
John and Tony Guilfoyle
|
113
|
|
Stephen Brown and Michael Collins
|
109
|
Our thanks go to Stephen for organising the three leagues so efficiently. Please continue to support the ladder.
Please continue to enjoy your bridge over the Summer months. I think that the MCOL dates will be settled in June and a doodle poll should be circulated thereafter to ascertain availability for all the matches for 2024-25.

| ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP |
 To play in Oxfordshire events (regular monthly events i.e. Senior Pairs, BBO Pairs Ladder or Thursday Teams) or the occasional Sunday events e.g. Harwell Cup, Handicap Pairs or Mixed Pairs) all players must either be Primary Oxfordshire members or Associate Oxfordshire Members. The committee discussed and decided this recently.
Oxfordshire welcomes players from other counties and at no cost, we ask you to register for Associate Membership.
To check Primary Oxfordshire membership click: NGS (ebu.co.uk) - you should see OXF by your name.
[Note the County Pairs and Presidents Cup are only open to Primary OBA Members. All Blue Pointed and the Congress are open to all so no associate membership is required for these events]
