Waikanae/Paraparaumu Interclub
The annual Waikanae v Paraparaumu Interclub event took place yesterday (6th April). Both clubs fielded 13 pair teams made up of players of all grades.
The day's individual winners were:
- 1st Ady Dale and Rae Lutman (Waikanae)
- 2nd Jeanne Wardill and Graham Cheater (Waikanae)
- 3rd Margaret Jamieson and Gillian Travers (Paraparaumu)
The shield was regained by Waikanae by a margin of 56.42 percentage points.
Many congratulations to Ady and Rae for the overall win, and thanks to all who took part in what was a very enjoyable afternoon. Special thanks to Maureen for both directing and scoring, and - as always - also to those who contributed behind the scenes.

NZBridge Website Update
STOP PRESS
We have had an update from NZB and it seems that the roll back to the old website has been successful and we are once again able to access the site.
The only outstanding issue is around tournament entries made since last Thursday. If you have entered any tournament, please check you are in fact registered. If you are not, please contact the Club hosting the tournament.
It is expected to have the old website fully up and running before the weekend.
I previously advised (here) that the new NZBridge website had gone live.
This morning NZBridge have told us that they are experiencing serious issues with the new site including loss of a number of functions such as tournament entry management, membership management and congress entries.
As a result, the decision has been taken to wind things back to the old website. This will enable the new one to be worked on (offline) and tested properly before going live. There is no time frame for this.
The rollback will take place today (Thursday) during which time there will be no website access.
The site will be restored to where it was as of Thursday morning last week. You may need to log in with your former passwords to access the site.
The NZBridge Secretary (email: Secretary@nzbridge.co.nz) can reset members' passwords for the old site (please don't request this unless absolutely necessary - the poor man has enough on his plate as it is).
Please note that, for
a short time, results will not be uploaded to either our website or the
NZBridge website from last Thursday. This will include any
masterpoints changes.
