Top six finishes for two english pairs in European Youth Pairs Finals

Sadly no medals, by two of the english pairs competing in the European Youth Championships managed to finish in the top 6 of their series.

Susan Stockdale & Fiona Brown were competing in the Under 26 Girls series. They were never out if the top 10, eventually they finished 5th in their series.

Likewise James Paul & Graeme Robertson. who were in the Under 21 series. They too were never out of the top 10, and eventually they finished 6th in their series.

James Thrower & Shivam Shah were also in the final of the Under 21 series., they finished 14th.

<Ed Jones & Tom Paske finished 27th in the final of the Under 26's.

Five other pairs took part.

There is a considerable increase in English participation in this tournament and we are extremely grateful to the Educational Trust for British Bridge (donations always welcome) who have helped seven of these pairs, two from Wales and one from Scotland with considerable financial support. Well done everyone.
