2026 – Rosen

Team Rosen L-R: Seb Atisen, Stefano Tommasini, Neil Rosen, John Atthey

Sebastian Atisen (previously Kristensen) is a Dane who has been living in London for the past 25 years. He moved from Denmark to London to play rubber bridge and was hosting at various rubber bridge clubs in London for many years.

While continuing to play bridge, he had a non-bridge job for a while, from which he is now retired and is back to playing bridge full time again.

John Atthey is a trained accountant. He’s originally from Gloucestershire but now lives in London. He formed a serious partnership with Neil Rosen about 7 years ago. They won the England Premier League last year and next month they will be playing together in the Camrose for the third time.

Neil Rosen is a full time bridge player and teacher who has run his own club: The Ace of Clubs for about 30 years (it is now online only sadly).

He has won many of the country’s leading tournaments several times. This last year has been successful with a Runner’s up spot in both Crockfords and the Gold Cup together with winning the Premier League.

Despite having played in only a few previous Lederer events Neil will be hoping to add to his tally of three Lederer victories.

Stefano Tommasini is originally from Brazil but now lives in London. He and Ben Green represented England in the European Championships in 2022. Partnering Ben Norton, he played on the England Open Team in Denmark in 2024, the Bermuda Bowl in 2025 and will represent England again later this year.
