Please join us for the Summer Sectional July 24-26 at our Bridge Center 817 Kempsville Road, Virginia Beach, VA 23464.
UPDATE: Lunch will be included and served between sessions all 3 days for players playing in both sessions.

- Sunday July 26 (Lunch is included, served between sessions)
- 10 AM and TBD: Stratflighted 0-1000 and Open Swiss Teams
*The Saturday 2:30 PM game is one that we did before COVID and was popular with our intermediate and novice players. You enter with your partner as a pair. All the entered pairs are listed by combined master points from highest to lowest. The Board-a-Match (BAM) Teams are formed by matching the highest with the lowest, the second highest with the second lowest, etc. Play using your normal strategy for matchpoint pairs. At the end of the game you get a second chance to win by seeing how your team of 4 did at board-a-match scoring. If you are eligible for master points in either form of comparison (match points or BAM) then you receive the higher of the two awards.

General Winter Weather Closure Guidance |
Each Director decides whether or not to cancel their own games based on inclement weather. Many of you remember that we used to link Bridge Center status to Virginia Beach Public Schools: if they closed, we closed. We eliminated that linkage a few years ago. Now it's up to each Director for the given day.

Unit and Club Emails |
Many of you are receiving email from club owners about upcoming events and other bridge topics, even if you never signed up for them. The club owners probably obtained your email from the ACBL roster. The ACBL terms of use (found at https://web2.acbl.org/documentLibrary/about/termsofuse.pdf) allow them to send information about ACBL-sanctioned bridge events and announcements and newsletters discussing activities of the respective club, Unit, or District. If you don't want to receive their emails then send them a note to direct them to remove you from their mailing list. If they won't honor your wishes then let me know.
Emails from the Unit will be sent using the database we maintain on BridgeWebs, which is also updated with the ACBL roster. If you want to opt out of those, you can either use the Contact Us form on the web page or else you can update your member profile in the Member Area (under Membership). If neither of those work then contact the webmaster, Wrus Kristiansen, or myself.
