Well done to Cork Congress President Linda O’Riordan and her committee on an excellent congress at the weekend, held live in the lovely Maryborough Hotel. While the numbers attending were lower than pre-covid, they fully justified the committee’s decision to go ahead with a face-to-face congress, and everyone enjoyed the weekend immensely. Hopefully another step on the road back to bridge as we used to know it.

The prizewinners were:

  • Mixed Pairs – Anne Dillon & Cian Holland
  • Congress Pairs – Linda O’Riordan & Nellie White
  • Intermediate Pairs – Margaret McCarthy & Declan Harte
  • Congress Teams – Derek O’Gorman, Cian Holland, Pat Quinn, Donal Garvey
  • Open Pairs – Kathleen O’Connor & Mary Hayes; Paddy Byrne & Matt O’Callaghan; Margo Lynch & Eleanor Hipwell; Konstantin Rabkin & Joseph Lupton

Thanks to TD Diarmuid Reddan who worked tirelessly throughout the weekend to make sure everything ran smoothly. You’ll find all the results from the weekend here.
