It is a one-day bridge event for school-age players of all experience levels. Entry is free, and it consists of:
Schools Cup for teams of four players all from the same school.
Swiss Teams for teams of four players from bridge clubs, schools or mixed teams from more than one school.
Minibridge Pairs for players of school age who have just started learning the game.
Short pairs duplicate for accompanying adults.
This event is great fun for players of all abilities as there is something for all, whether competing for prizes, or just playing bridge and socialising with their peers.
Please see here for the webpage, or here for an entry form.
The event gives students the opportunity to play in one of their first national events, competing against all the other students entering across the country. It is fun to play in, with just the right amount of challenge to make it exciting and interesting! A hand commentary is provided so both students and teacher can consider the hands where they could have done better.
Around 250 pairs took part in 2015, and we hope to have more this year. Entry is free and is made by bridge teachers on behalf of their group.
