| Funeral Geoff Evans |
 Due to Corona-virus restrictions, the number of people attending Geoff's funeral yesterday was restricted. Therefore, we want to let you know that it all went very well. The family was particularly moved that, in spite of the restrictions on attendance at the service itself, hundreds of people from the local area, including bridge friends, turned out along the route of the cortège. The eulogy (which you can download here) was a beautiful tribute to the many interesting aspects of the life of this very gifted man.

| EWBA ONLINE BRIDGE EVENTS |
online competitions
Due to the Coronavirus crisis, it is unlikely that face-to-face bridge will be safe anytime soon. However, many of our players seem to have taken to online bridge very well. Therefore, the EWBA committee has decided to run the annual regional events between now and November online. What will happen after November will be decided nearer the time. Keep an eye out for our announcements!

The South-West of England regions, in cooperation with the EWBA, have set up an events calendar which endeavours to list all events in all the partaking regions. This new calendar can be accessed through the new tab 'Regional Events E-Wales & SW-England', found in the list of tabs on the top left of the EWBA homepage.
