Hi Russell, As usual got my knickers in a twist and lost the site half way thru my previous attempt at comment. First of all we all owe you a great debt of gratitude for your efforts setting up this super competition, and I am sure that all will second that.
Just a couple of minor comments regarding some of the scores:
Breg v Musketeers 20-10 and 25-8 which is impossible, and Youthz v Homers also 20-10 and 23-7 vp's

Additionally House v Gogo Girls 40-37 and 16-14, while Oak App v Trydy 30-24 and also 16-14 - can't really be right I think

Hi John,

These results are all correct. The VP score is listed first with the Imps score in brackets. Breg beat Musketeers by 25 imps to 8. This is a difference of 17 which converts to a 20-10 win on 12 board VP scale. Similar commnent apply to the other matches although it is surprising that a win by 2 imps gives the same 16-14 result as a win by 6 imps. The WBF VP conversion table can be found at http://www.nzbridge.co.nz/directing/Teams%20Guidelines/Teams%20Table%20B%20-%20IMP%20Conversion.pdf.
