Many Hertfordshire clubs have become Virtual Clubs and are offering on line bridge to their members. HBA has also become a Virtual Club and has launched some new bridge opportunities for which members have been notified by email.  These are listed below and are available to all Herts members.

Due to Coronavirus, HBA Face-to-Face events are being suspended until further notice and all sessions noted below will be online on BBO.

Open Pairs 
These are 18 board Pairs competitions held every Saturday morning at 10:00a.m and on the second Sunday of every month at 15.00.  Entry will be on the day via BBO in the usual way with a cost of 3BB$. A partner will be needed.

7 High Pairs 
On the fourth Sunday of every month, starting at 15.00 HBA will host a 15 board Pairs competition for players whose NGS is no higher than 7. Playing 15 boards will allow for a slightly slower pace of play.  NB  It is necessary to pre-register for these competitions by sending an e mail to ajwo56@hotmail.com. You only need to do this once and then you are eligible for all the HBA NGS7 events.

Gentle Duplicate 

In conjunction with the HBA, Watford and Bushey Bridge Club are running a Gentle Duplicate session every Saturday morning from 10.00. These sessions are aimed at students and improvers and open to all HBA members. For details, click here..
