Radnorshire Bridge Club 2024 Statistics

The following tables show interesting statistics harvested from the results pages of all the evenings we played in 2024. Firstly overall attendance.

Next the most loyal attendees

Top performers now. Firstly the overall highest scoring pairs averaged for the whole year. Congratulations to Peter and Kay for averaging nearly 60%.

Some technical stats now. Firstly an attempt to identify our best or most accurate declarers, who, whatever contract they have landed in make all the tricks available to the declarer. Note: this may be with or without the help of the defenders, but this will average out over the year.

Defending is sometimes a neglected aspect of the game. It is important though, becuase as a player you are likely to defend more often than play. Here are our most accurate defenders. A lower percentage is better as it reflects the games where the defence dropped a trick. Note: it is often a case that the trick is lost on an unfortunate lead. Once again this should average out over a year of playing.

The next table shows the pairs most likely to double you. There are 3 clear front-runners in terms of frequency and results gained from the strategy.

Fun statistics now. A look at our slam performance. The next table shows slams bid, made and not made, either by play or more likely because the bidding was over-ambitious. The final column shows the average percent score achieved when the pair bid a slam.

Finally for all of us who complain that we never get any cards (and I definitely include myself in that list), here are tables to show whether or not we are justified in that complaint (you see I am). Any names not present have had approximately their fair share of points.
