| Computer/ WiFi Problems |
Apologies for continuing problems with WiFi on our premises. It seems like no sooner has one issue been resolved than another crops up!
The current situation is:
- Directors can set up and run face to face drives without any problems - the tablets connect to the intranet and the results are correctly calculated. It is possible to show the results on the big screen at the end of the drive and everything is saved.
- However, the computer is not connecting to the internet hub which prevents the results being immediately uploaded to the club's website and to the EBU for Masterpoints and NGS scores.
- A couple of workarounds mean that we can upload results either at the end of the drive, or soon afterwards. Please be patient and be assured that we are getting there!
The WiFi also affects the bar terminals, and you may need to use the Chip and PIN rather than contactless when asked for payment.

| Swiss Teams |
SWISS TEAMS - URGENT REMINDER
Our next Swiss Teams event will be held on
Sunday 26 May 2024
Entries close on Friday 17th May.
If you would like to play, but need another pair, let me know and we'll match you up with another pair.
We're happy for non-members to play ... with Swiss the more teams the merrier. So do spread the word if you play at other clubs. It's just £5 for non-members, which includes the refreshments - tea, coffee, sandwiches, savouries, cake ... but they do have to play bridge as well!
We start at 2pm and play six 6-board matches, with a break for excellent refreshments from our catering team.
By playing 36 boards, we are able to give Master Points for every match won and, on past occasions, I'm pleased to say everyone has gone home with points.
Add your name to the list at the club
or email Chairman@NottinghamBridge.Club
