2009 Butler Trials Blog 1

Posted 03 July 2009 by Ron

Heading off to Canberra for the 2009 Butler Trials. Except in the Women’s, numbers this year are way down.

	2008	2009
Open Trials	64 pairs	38 pairs
Women's Trials	30 pairs	37 pairs
Seniors	38 pairs	12 pairs

Why this huge drop? Is it the financial climate? Or is Canberra way too cold in July? Or is there just too much bridge around? In the Open, none of the players from either Australian Open Team are competing. They have just been away for a fortnight in Macau.

Stage 1 starts at 7.30pm tonight and continues to Sunday afternoon.
