Updated EWBA League results + announcements

Junior Bridge


On 6th february, in preperation for the Junior Camrose, many of the Thursday evening players paired up with the juniors. The evening was a great success and gave the youngsters a taste of playing in a larger field against more experienced opposition. Thanks to everyone who gave their time and patience and hopefully another evening like this will be organised in future.

The next committee meeting will take place in Cardiff Bridge Club on 26th April before the Arthur James Pairs and AGM at CBC.

CORONA

The EWBY committee has a responsibility for a population of bridge players which includes a large proportion of older people as well as many players with underlying health problems. We all know by now that the Coronavirus is most dangerous for this section of the population. Therefore, the decision has been made to cancel all competitive bridge (WBU Championship Pairs East Wales Section on 29th March and EWBA AGM & Arthur James Pairs on 26th April) at least until the end of April. Please keep an eye on the website for further notices regarding future events.

The EWBA committee also urges individual clubs to take responsible decisions regarding the running of their own club.

We wish you all to stay safe and well.

New Events Calender!

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.

EWBA League 2019

All play-by deadlines for matches in all 3 divisions of the Teams League have been removed. No fixed play-by dates will apply. Teams are asked to arrange matches as and when the restrictions on movement and meeting make face-to-face bridge possible again. In the interim, teams may, if both so wish, agree to play their matches online. The results of the online matches should be notified to the League Organiser in the usual way.

The 2020 KO Cup has been cancelled.

Congratulations to Newport Dragons who have already made sure of being Champions of Division 3!
