  Regulations

As long as a player is a bona fide member of a Cumbrian club (i.e. have paid their membership subscription for the current year of competition) they can play in the Championship Pairs and Championship Teams. All other events will be Open events at which any player may compete provided they are either EBU members or members of another country’s sponsoring organisation.

Championship Teams

This competition is a straight knockout. No seeding, no zoning (unless there are at least 8+ teams entered and zoning is appropriate). The draw will be made at the AGM by Tim Matthews - or at a date and time confirmed by the Committee. A plate event will be run, for those losing their first round matches, depending on the number of total entries.

Inter Club Teams of 8

This competition will now be played online, using RealBridge, and will hopefully encourage all of our affiliated clubs to enter a team.  The winning team (or runners up if the winning team withdraw) will be offered the chance (entry fee paid for them) to play in the Garden Cities Tournament.
