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.
