| CORONAVIRUS AND CORNISH BRIDGE |
With the cancellation of the three-day CORNWALL CONGRESS in September, there are now no county bridge events planned for the future. Although suitable dates have been identified for county events in the Autumn, they have not been publicised, as it is unlikely that normal bridge will re-commence in 2020. We can only hope that real bridge will re-commence in 2021.
There are now over 100 virtual (online) bridge clubs in England on Bridge Base Online (closest to us being Plymouth and Exeter); over 180 on Bridge Club Live; as well as plenty of bridge - both casual and competitive - on both these two main platforms. There is also Funbridge where you play with a robot and two other robots - but none of the robots chat very much!
We are looking into whether it is viable to set up an online Cornwall Bridge Club ourselves. Complexity, cost and enough interest are the three factors that will dictate the outcome.
