Ireland place 2nd in Cavendish Teams

On Tuesday 22nd of October the Irish Camrose Team of Mark Moran Rory Boland Thomas Hanlon Tommy Garvey Hugh McGann and John Carroll placed 2nd in the prestigious Cavendish Teams.
This was a tremendous performance as the same team expressed satisfaction with their 7th placing in the preliminary event the same weekend when a field of 56 teams started. While not as momentous as the European Silver medal gathered by Team Silver which included the last 4 of the above team along with Adam Mesbur and Nick Fitzgibbon it is a tremendous performance.
You may remember Adam and Nick won the Gold medal at the recent European Senior Pairs during the summer. So thats all good ..

Information on these performances can be found at the above website.

Also records of some of the matches can be accessed via Bridge Library on Bridgebase online .

Hanlon and Carroll will play the B final in Cavendish Pairs for Pairs 13-24 tomorrow.
Only the top 12 pairs qualified for the final. Given the strength of the field here it is quite a good
effort.
