A steady week at the club last week and we will see more of our Brexiteers returning this week. It was lovely to welcome a new member to the club this week, Kevin Mc Guiness, also Anne Muir and visitors Len Salter, Elisabeth and Gerhard.

We will be holding our “Red Nose Day” tournament on Friday 20^th March – there will be a few tapas after play – please wear red and join in the fun!! and even a red nose if you have one!! We have a special guest appearing at the club after the tournament!!

We have managed to sort out the printer, at last, so results are now available, in paper, at the end of play but, unfortunately, we have had to buy a new laptop. The old one was getting very slow and could not be updated – scorers and dealers hopefully you will appreciate it!! The old one has served us well since our flood in our Arenal clubhouse in 2019!!

We are running a lottery for our Easter Monday tournament – tickets now available.

Our thoughts are with a few of our members who are poorly and look forward to seeing them back at the club soon.

Wednesdays is a quiet day and those that use to come on Thursdays would find this day just as friendly – come and give it a try.

We still have no pair wanting to be our first member of the 70% Club in 2026 you just aren’t trying!!

If you have any signs of a cold or a cough, please stay away from the Club – we have a few vulnerable members. Also, we would remind you to dress accordingly - bring a cardigan, jacket, or shawl with these cooler temperatures.

Bridge bookings for w/c 16^th & 23^rd March are now open – slots available - you can e-mail the Club, use the sign-up sheets in the Clubhouse or TURN UP WITH A PARTNER BEFORE 2.00 LATEST. If you have signed up, please be at the club by 2.15pm.

Friday 20^th March – Committee Meeting & Red Nose Day

Jávea School of Bridge and Social Club (JSBSC) holds duplicate tournaments currently every Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons commencing promptly at 2.30pm.  Doors open at 1.30pm.

We ask that players arrive by the latest 2.15pm thus leaving the Director and Scorer sufficient time to establish and set up the movement for a prompt start at 2.30pm. We have a dealing machine for generating computer dealt hands and also have wireless tablets using ArcScorer.

The tournaments are conducted in the English language and to EBU Guidelines.

We are a multi-national club with Spanish, British, Dutch, German, French, Belgian, Norwegian, Swedish, Austrian, Canadian, Danish and Swiss members - play is in English. 

We are proud of our reputation for being a friendly club and extend a very warm welcome to visitors.
