The Summer Meeting at Eastbourne
a festival of bridge for all

Floral Hall, Eastbourne, 8th - 11th August 2024

This year the Swiss Pairs Lite events will be integrated into the main Swiss Pairs event, with pairs playing four 8-board matches on each of the days they enter. They will start by being assigned against each other as far as possible but then drawn against pairs in the main field who are on a similar score. Prizes, ranking lists and master points will be awarded separately for the Lite field.
