| NBL |
|
Formed in 2006, the NBL is a teams-of-eight competition between the County Bridge Associations of Northern England and North Wales. The League is divided into three Divisions. The A Division is for teams consisting of players of the highest standard, the B Division is for regular County standard players, whilst the C Division is aimed at those who do not yet fall into the other categories.
There are four all-play-all events each year, held on Saturdays in the summer months. Events, which are usually of 42 boards, start at 1pm. A buffet meal is included and most people are on their way home by early evening.
This season Cumbria has two teams, one in the B division and one in the C division.
