External Competitions
Simultaneous pairs charity events

The club participates in two events during each year, held as normal duplicate club evenings. These are national events, so club members effectively compete and are ranked with all other members from participating clubs.

Children in Need Sims. For info, click http://www.ecatsbridge.com/sims/cin/default.asp

Charity Challenge Sims. For info, click http://www.ecatsbridge.com/sims/charitychallenge/default.asp

There is a small increase in the table money for these events, which the club donates to the charity.
