Kenilworth Bridge Club Frequently Asked Questions Pairs League
1. Question:how many boards do we play against opposition?
Answer: 18

2. Question:How do I set up the matches?
Answer: One of your pair needs to be the Organiser – agree what times and days you both are available. Then contact other people in your Division (all contact details are on this email) and arrange to play them between September 12th and 19th December. You should also agree who will be setting up the table on that day, i.e. the ‘home’ team and the ‘away’ team.

3. Question: How do we all agree what the final score is?
Answer: You need to look at the History tab within BBO when you are logged into BBO....and then click on ‘My Table’ At the bottom of that screen, , it will show the final numbers ( e.g. 13.5 – 8 or 9.8 – 10.9). Your pair organiser needs to agree the final score with the other pair, either in the Chat box or by phone or by email.
