2025-26 MOSS TROPHY –TEAMS OF FOUR

Played on the 4^th Friday in each month. All is set for the first round 25^th April.

NB Just to be clear the bridge on that afternoon will be open to all, whether involved in the trophy or not. Guests welcome. It will look like any other Friday to those not involved.

We now have 9 Teams of 4. One pair to play North South on the Moss Trophy afternoons and the other East West.

Teams should pick a colour (first come first served) and it is suggested you might all want to wear some item of apparel in the relevant colour (very much optional)

Participating and non participating pairs play as normal. In addition to the normal scoring the teams will score as follows

For each pair you beat in your orientation you get 2 points (1 for any equal) Points for the N/S and E/W pairs will be aggregated and a League table of the teams will be created.

Eg If there are 8 tables and N/S pair come 2^nd and E/W come 4^th 20 points would be scored.

Obviously not all teams will be able to play on every 4^th Friday. Scores will be aggregated and once 5 events have been played, the worst aggregate score can be dropped off. Teams playing less than 5 times will not qualify.

The more you play the better your chances. Teams can be added through the year but will be at an automatic disadvantage.

We hope this will be a fun addition to our other events and should not be taken too seriously.
