Club Holiday10th August 2009This year's club holiday will take place between Monday 22nd to Friday 26th March 2010 at Bournemouth. We have also secured the services of Dick Pathan again as our resident director. Further details and booking form are available on this website. Pay to Play11th February 2009The committee wish to keep members informed as to the development of this most important change to the way the EBU will be collecting their dues. The committee, although agreeing that all our members should be members of the EBU, we in principle are against the method of collection, i.e. P2P, as we are not convinced that the right objectives will be achieved as it does not encourage new members and penalises the "social" members who play 3 or 4 times a week as they will be subsidising the more serious bridge players who need and use the EBU and who only play twice a week. However to keep everyone up to date here is a letter received from the EBU together with their update on Pay to Play. All this information and more can be found on the EBU web-site www.ebu.co.uk. We will continue to discuss Pay to Play proposals in committee and will keep you advised of further developments in due course. Host System1st February 2009From February 2009, the Host System will become Dial-a-Partner for all duplicate sessions. Please telephone the correct Host Secretary (depending on the session) to request a partner. The Host Secretary for that session will put you in contact with anybody else who is seeking a partner. You can bypass this system by just turning up and taking pot luck. Should you turn up at a duplicate pairs session and there be no-one else to play bridge with, you will be given a free voucher to use at a subsequent session, but in the first instance if you know you have no partner and want to play in a bridge session please use the contact numbers. Contact details for the Host Secretaries can be found here, or by selecting the Host System link on the left hand menu. |
