First Mini Moos for 2018
35 players from the Waikato region took part in the first Mini Moos for 2018 held in Morrinsville on Sunday afternoon July 1. They were a bit bewildered the way they were instructed to move to a different place in a seemingly haphazard way after playing each hand. But that meant they had 12 different partners and at the end of the session they all had played all 12 of the hands in circulation. Best score of the day was Carola Gohring one of a large contingent from Rotorua.
