Here's a reminder for all ACBL members and clubs. Throughout the week of February 22 - 28, 2021, the ACBL are raising money for the ACBL Educational Foundation. Part of each Virtual Club entry fee will be donated.
The ACBL Educational Foundation is devoted to teaching and promoting the game of bridge far and wide.
These fundraising games will be held in the Virtual Clubs on Bridge Base Online. No registration is required.
Simply play in your usual ACBL Virtual Club game during the week of February 22-28, Monday-Sunday.
Click on “Virtual Clubs” on the main menu then “ACBL – North America” and look for your club
This event is only available to clubs who've created a Virtual ACBL Club on Bridge Base Online. If your club hasn’t signed up yet, it’s not too late. Club managers can fill out a short form to get started.
For all the details visit the ACBL event page
But, it sure is fun when you do well!!
I agree. It’s discouraging to get beaten up by higher level players
I agree too. But was told it wasn’t the best way for NLM to practice and improve.
We'd like to know what portion of the fee goes to the Education Fund.
VERY MUCH NEEDED to keep these people playing. Many in our club have given up!
To further encourage the game of bridge, ACBL needs to offer $1.75 games to non-life master bridge players. Open players can play all day at that rate and non-life masters who would like to play with similar level players can NEVER play at that rate. We all pay the same dues so we should all have the same opportunities to play at our comfort level.
Great idea!
