The last of the 5 Mijas teams (Pat, Simone, Mary ) were eliminated at the semi Final Stage after a hard fought match against a strong home Lauro team. A Combined Saydo/La Posada team skipped by Dave McCann beat another Lauro Trio in the other semi. Due to the heavy rain and water logged rinks the final has been rescheduled.

Mijas have 4 pairs entered for the Provincial Pairs at Saydo. Due to internet problems encountered by La Posada their entry was not received by the hosts on Friday and the revised draw is enclosed below. Following a review of the Procedures and thanks to the hard work of the Competition Secretary at Saydo all 22 entries are now included in the draw. The Competition will still fall within period Sunday 12th thru Wednesday 15th April. The full playing schedule is shown. Members
