Mike,Dee,Jerry,and LesDee and Les
A fantastic achievement for four of Omokoroa’s Novices, players who have only recently started to learn how to play Bridge. Competing in the recent Novices section in the tournament at Tauranga, Omokoroa players took the top two places. Congratulations to Dee Lynn and Les Buttimore who came first with 59.82 %, and Mike Johnson and Jerry Hale who were second with 57.76%. The four players are members of a larger group of 27 new learners who took lessons this year under the guidance of Ross Peterson, the Omokoroa teacher. Their success is a credit to his teaching and encouragement. Entering your first tournament is always a challenge and winning is wonderful! Omokoroa is a lovely club and gives great support to their new learners, it provides a happy environment where they can develop their new skills along with great social activities. Anyone interested in joining this happy group should contact David Luxton, the Club’s Secretary Tel.548 0521. Well done, Omokoroa, keep up the good work!
