Following the huge success of the CBAI Play & Discuss competitions and seminars, we have been asked to continue with four ten-week tournaments in the mornings and two evening tournaments at a special price of just €150.

These are live National Bridge Competitions that are a good way of supporting the CBAI and qualify for Master Points. Every session is immediately followed by talks given by our expert Bridge teachers led by Thomas Mac Cormac and Rory Egan, to discuss the hands played. The competitions will be on BBO and consist of 16 boards.

Grand Master Bridge are very kindly offering anyone who signs up this year a Free Sunday Seminar hosted by Rory and Thomas  and featuring their guest expert, the very popular Grand Master of Grand Masters, Mr BJ O'Brien himself! The seminar will be on ‘Hand Valuation’ and is on Sunday the 2nd of October.

Grand Master Bridge will make recordings of the discussion and the play of the hands to be made available to you after each competition. We will also send you copies of each hand, and a set of Grand Master Bridge notes, to you after the game in PDF form.

The cost is €150 for the 10-week programme of seminars and competitions. If you cannot make a particular competition on any given day every effort will be made to allow you play on another day of the week. Partners will also be found for those who require them.
