Congratulations to the England Women's team who won the Gold medal at the recent 2nd Women's Champions' Cup, which took place over the weekend at the Boario Terme, Congress Centre (14th - 16th November) run by the European Bridge League.
England were represented by Sally Brock, Fiona Brown, Helen Erichsen (playing captain), Diana Nettleton, Nevena Senior & Nicola Smith.
They faced an Italian team (Gsad Idea Bridge Torino) in the final. It was a nail biting finish, with England finishing ahead by just 1 IMP to claim the trophy.
The 22nd European Open Champions Cup took place at the same time. England were represented by Andrew Black, Simon Cope, David Gold (playing captain), Andrew McIntosh, Tom Paske & Tom Townsend. They finished 5th in the round robin.
