Bridge Games in White Rock & South Surrey

Support our local clubs!!!  It is nice to have bridge clubs in our local area.  If you want these clubs to survive in the post-COVID era, please support them by playing in their games.  The following is a list of all the games, face to face and online on BBO, run by the bridge clubs in White Rock and South Surrey.  The face to face games are serving coffee, tea and snacks.  The cost for face to face games is $10.  Masks are optional.  Players no longer need to use their own bidding boxes.  The cost for the BBO games is BB$4.00

Monday evening 7-9 pm on BBO:  To find the game on BBO, select Competitive, then select All Tournaments, then type "South Surrey" or "216234" in the Search area.  If you are blocked from the game and want access, send a chat to the host VACB216234 15-20 minutes before game time.  There are usually 5-7 tables at this game.  Players can play with a Robot if they do not have a partner. 

Tuesday morning 11 am - 2:30 pm face to face at Elgin Hall:  This game is attracting about 6-7 tables at this time.  We would like to see this grow to about 10 tables (or more).  Hopefully the more advanced players in our area who used to play in this game will return soon.

Wednesday morning 10:15 am - 1:30 pm face to face at Elgin Hall: This Duplicate Lite game has 2 sections, an Open section where anyone can play and a 299er section limited to players with less than 300 ACBL masterpoints. Each section attracts about 6-7 tables each week. At this time, we also have a small section where players new to bridge can play among themselves with "coaching" by the director and/or a volunteer.

Wednesday evening 7-9 pm on BBO:  To find the game on BBO, select Competitive, then select All Tournaments, then type "Peace Arch" or "221192" in the Search area.  If you are blocked from the game and want access, send a chat to the host VACB221192 15-20 minutes before game time.  There are usually 5-6 tables at this game.  Players can play with a Robot if they do not have a partner. 

Thursday morning 10:15 am - 1:30 pm face to face at Elgin Hall: This Duplicate Lite game has one section with about 10 tables at this time. We would like to have a 299er section on Thursdays, but so far we have not had enough attendance to make this possible.  If the Thursday attendance increases to a consistent 12+ tables, we will try a 299er section on Thursdays once again.  Shout out to the 299er players: if you want a 299er section on Thursdays, help us increase the attendance to 12+ tables so that a separate section becomes possible.  Thanks.
