Port Macquarie Hastings Bridge Club Australia wide restricted pairs winners, Susanne Hollis and Tom Meakin.

Port Macquarie Hastings Bridge Club

THE Australian Bridge Federation holds a number of competitions throughout the year and a recent one, the Australia-wide restricted pairs, was for players with less than 300 Masterpoints (a term only bridge players would understand).

It is a classification of a players’ level and this excludes very highly ranked players but to achieve 300 MP’s takes years.

We were thrilled when one of our pairs, Susanne Hollis and Tom Meakin, placed first in the country at the end of the competition.

This is a wonderful achievement and is testament to their dedication and is the result of lessons and classes they have attended over the years as well as regular play.
