History
The Bloomfield Club has been around for over a decade, and through many different advisors. The two key advisors during this time were Sal Garraio and Caryn Gilbert. Mr. Garraio led the team to Nationals appearances between 2001 and 2005, making NAQT Nationals in 2004 and 2005. As of late however, the program has begun to stagnate and has lost some of the quality it once had in former years. The team is attempting a resurgence in 2008-2009.
Nationals
At the 2005 HSNCT Bloomfield went 6-4 in the preliminary rounds, losing a close 200-215 match to Richard Montgomery and Chris Ray. The teams met again in the playoffs, where Bloomfield lost a crushing match, 360-140. Bloomfield then lost it's next playoff match against La Jolla, 220-210. Bloomfield B went 4-6. At the 2004 HSNCT, Bloomfield B went 5-5 and missed the playoffs while Bloomfield A went 4-6.
