We have set up an additional website for our on-line teaching program.  This program was aimed at last year's Y1 and Y2 students.  The lessons have now started.  

If you wish to consider joining our next teaching program which may start in the autumn, please register by clicking on the 'Student Registration' menu item on the CBCT website.

Enter www.bridgewebs.com/cbct  into your browser.

  Fill in the form and press 'Send'.  

All our sessions are open to non-members but you must register by filling in the form on the right hand side of the page.  You need do this only once but do it as soon as you can.  We create our 'allowed players' list from these submissions - usually several hours before the event.  The events list is shown on the calendar (top right).  Monday PM, Wednesday AM and Friday PM are level2 sessions with Wednesday is for players with an NGS level of 7 or under.

The Wednesday morning session is for our less experienced players.  For those with an NGS grading, it should be 7 or below.  The director watches this event and sends comments later in the week to our players.

This is the view you get when you sign into BBO and enter the Competitive area followed by All Tournaments. You want the pending tab. Event start time is 13:15 but register well before that to allow time for any problems.

1. In the search bar (top right)  enter vEBU, this will list just those tournaments run by EBU virtual clubs.
2. The County Bridge Club host will always be vEBU207910.
3. To chat to the director (host) click on the gray box where you see vEBU207910.
4. To enter the tournament click the white area containing "County Bridge Club Fri .....".
5. One of the pair registers the pair, the other member of pair receives an invitation to accept. Know your partners BBO UserName and best to have you partner as a "Friend" in the People Tab..
6. The event will not appear as pending until 2 hours prior to the event, so will not show now for instance.

The EBU best advice is to bar the use of the UNDO button for mis-clicks, and all our duplicate sessions will follow that advice. The reason is that it removes all problems of whether the UNDO is for a mis-click or a change of mind as well as preventing a delay in the bidding or play. A mis-click is more likely to damage the pair mis-clicking than the opposition but in the event that it does damage the opposition there is regrettably no redress, the director will rule that you have to live with the apparent injustice. The mis-click must not be brought to the attention of the partner and there is no obligation to volunteer the mis-click to the opposition.

If you are prone to mis-clicks then we strongly recommend you change your Account tab > Settings > Confirm bids / Confirm cards to ON so that you have to confirm with bids with an OK button and click a card twice to play.
