CMBA would like to thank all of the dedicated bridge players who drove to our Swiss Team Event on Sunday, October 30th. Unfortunately, due to the power outage, the game was cancelled, and we were not able to get the cancellation notice posted before some people had to begin their drive to the playing site.It was apparently easier for players coming from outside the Central Mass area to get to the Auburn Senior Center. Many of our players in the immediate area not only lost power for up to 5 and 6 days from the 'Halloween Northeaster', but also were not able to navigate safely in their neighborhoods.Many of the roads were impassable due to fallen trees and power lines. We cordially invite you to attend our next sectional which will be held May 5-6, 2012 at the same playing site, the Auburn Senior Center. Hope you will join us then.

WELCOME to the Central Mass Bridge Association, or CMBA website. CMBA is Unit 113 of the ACBL, American Contract Bridge League. Membership is open to all Central Massachusetts contract bridge players who enjoy this challenging, competitive and mind-stimulatingcard game.

OTHER GAMES -In addition, games are sponsored monthly by the Unit and are held at the Auburn Senior Center, 4 Goddard Drive, Auburn, Ma 01501. One or two of these may be two-day Sectional tournaments. See schedule to the right.

NEWCOMERS are always welcome at CMBA bridge games. Some clubs provide partners if a player arrives 15 minutes before the scheduled game time; or call the club contact, listed in the club section, to ensure that a partner can be provided. - DUPLICATE BRIDGE is similar to party or rubber bridge games. Most games are stratified which allows players of similar experience to compete with one another playing the same cards in each session.

PLEASE NOTE – This website is intended to eventually provide information for all clubs in Unit 113.  At this time however, some of the information provided refers only to unit sponsored games – see Results and Calendar to the right as an example.  Hopefully, this can be expanded in the future.          June 2011
