It is a pleasure once again to see so many strong players from abroad and from Denmark as well. A special welcome to Zia this time with Howard Weinstein as partner and to the Irish national open team.

A warm welcome to the strong ladies, Sabine with her favourite partner, Daniela, and the Norwegian goldwinners from Tenerife 2005, Åse Langeland_Tone Torkelsen Svendsen.

The French junior pair, Bessis_Gaviard, were introduced as the youngest pair in the Hecht Cup. I may be true, but the Raulund_Ege kids for sure are breaking the record (10 and 15).

Anna Christa choose to play with Anita Jensen, but later on she learned that Anita is a school teacher. „Oh, give me a break. Am I wasting a Friday evening with a school teacher!“, Anna Christa cried.< br/> Both Anna Christa and Niclas looked friendly enough when I together with Anne Mette accepted their kind offer on massage, but ... oh, give me a break!

What a finish ... no, not Finish, rather Swedish, Danish and Norwegian! The SweDanes had a good nights sleep at top, but after round 7 Søren Godtfredsen and Sorin Lupan (winners of the first Hecht Cup) took over and planned to stay in front.

With only five rounds to go Boye Brogeland and Erik Sælensminde with a hat trick of enormous scores, +64, +64, and +56, wanted to join the party, and even with a moderate finish there was no doubt of their succes.

Godtfredsen/ Lupan and Bruun/Fredin managed to finish at the very same score, and thus we have two runners up in the Hecht Cup 2005.
