The team of the Peter and Henryka Bonnor-Moris, Diane and Malcolm Bricknell, Wendy and Roger Gilbert, Paul Ambrus and Viv Harris managed a convincing victory extending a half time lead of 51 imps to a full time total of 108 imps.
Some very interesting hands produced the unusual result of 5CX + 2, an excellent result for Roehampton Club and the only slam bid of 6C was played and made by Henryka Bonnor-Moris for a score of +1370 giving a net result of +12imps for the team.
Congratulations to the team!
