Would your club be interested in hosting a heat of the National Pairs in March?
Since 2016 the National Pairs has had an updated structure without local heats and with an increased number of regional venues, open to all EBU members who wish to enter. Now we are going to extend this, to try to reduce entry fees and increase numbers of venues and players.
Accordingly, the regional heats in 2020 will take place at several clubs around the country and will be run by those clubs, promoted among their members as well as nationally. All venues will play the same boards and the event will be scored across the entire field. The top 50 pairs nationally will qualify to play in the National Final.
An additional ranking list will be produced from each region (scored by itself), with the winning pairs awarded regional trophies.
Further information about what is involved is available on our website and I would be happy to answer any further questions you might have.
