Fall NABC  -  Whitehead Trophy

 

 Il Whitehead Trophy č una competizione a coppie riservata alle ladies nella quale viene messo in palio l'omonimo trofeo donato dal giornalista e giocatore americano Wilbur C. Whitehead (1866-1931) co-vincitore della prima edizione della Vanderbilt Cup nel 1928

La manifestazione veniva organizzata durante gli Spring North American Bridge Championships ma, nel periodo 1958-1962, si č disputata una competizione simile anche ai Summer e, per questo, il palmares riporta due coppie vincitrici, Nel 2015 la competizione č stata spostata nei Fall North American Bridge Championships

Il Campionato laurea le migliori coppie femminili del momento

Whitehead Trophy, donated in 1930 by Wilbur C. Whitehead of New York, a great bridge authority and a member of the team that won the Vanderbilt Cup in 1928, the first year it was in play

 The competition played at Spring NABC in  two qualifying sessions, followed by two final sessions

In the years 58-62 the competition has been disputed also in Summer NABC (this explain why we have two Pairs winners in the list) and from 2015 has been moved in Fall NABC
