Tuesday Morning Casual Swiss

For those players who enjoy playing Swiss Teams, the Brevard Bridge Club is pleased to announce a regular biweekly Casual Swiss game to be held Tuesday mornings from 9-11:45 at the French Broad Community Center.  These games will be held on the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month.  Once we restart classes, they may move to a different day.

Two or more teams will compete, either head-to-head or round-robin, in matches of up to 24 boards (depending on time).  There will be no director, and no masterpoints will be awarded.

Teams interested in participating in this should contact Abe Pallas at 352-262-4899 (phone or cell) or pallasa@bellsouth.net so that he can set up appropriate matches.

The Brevard Bridge Club donated $2460 in cash and 214 pounds of food to Transylvania County Bread of Life in March.  Click HERE to see their thank you letter.  Thanks to all who donated, and thanks to Sharon Moya for organizing this!

Reservation Policy for Duplicate Games

We have made some changes to our reservation policy for our  duplicate games.  While we welcome everyone, we will be giving priority to our long-time players.    Please see below.  

  1. Reservations will open for Brevard Bridge Club (BBC) members 14 days before the day of the game.  BBC members will have exclusive reservation access for ten days, until 12:01 AM three days before the game.  BBC members can continue to make reservations right up until game time.
  2. A Brevard Bridge Club member is defined as anyone who has played in one of our games before June 30, 2024 , OR has played in one of our face-to-face games at least 10 times.
  3. Non-members can email June (junepatton@gmail.com) one week before the game to request a reservation.  Non-members may not make reservations through the website.  June will add them manually starting the morning three days before the game.
  4. The game will be limited to no more than 12 tables..
  5. Reservations will be held until 10 minutes before game time.
  6. Anyone who does not show up for a game without cancelling their reservation before game time will receive a warning the first time, and have their reservation privileges suspended for two weeks the second time.

Please note that while you must be a BBC member to make a reservation,  you DO NOT need to login to do so.  

To make a reservation:

  1. Click on the Calendar link in the menu to the left (or click HERE).
  2. Click on the date of the game for which you would like to make a reservation.  Reservations may be made up to two weeks in advance.
  3. Click on the Reservation Required link at the bottom of the popup window.  
  4. You will see the current list of reservations.  Enter your email address, ACBL number, or name (exactly as it appears on the website) and then click the Check button.  Your email address will tend to work best here.
  5. Enter your partner's name (and direction, if desired), and then click Add Reservation.button.
  6. That's it!  You're done.

If you need to cancel your reservation, you can repeat steps 1 - 5.  Your existing reservation will be displayed, and you can click the Remove button at the bottom left of the popup window.  Please cancel your reservation on the website.  Do not contact June to do it.
