StepBridge – it is with sadness that we now have to discontinue our use of StepBridgeUK, primarily due to falling numbers. In its place the WBU intend to use the existing WBU RealBridge platform, and continue with our weekly tournaments (days to be decided). We intend to discontinue StepBridgeUK as from 31^stAugust, and have a RealBridge platform in place, having trained Directors. It is recognised that many members have already pre-purchased Participation Points, and the monetary value of these will be refunded where possible. If you wish to reclaim any monies please contact our treasurer – Jean Cuffley – cufleyj@gmail.com – stating how many PPs you need a refund for, and provide her with your bank details. This refund option will only be available until 1^st October, after which any residual funds will be transferred to the Welsh Bridge Union.
All developments can be seen by reference to the Welsh Bridge Union website.
