The Sandra Landy Trophy is restricted to players with fewer than 10,000 master points. Originally held as a single event competition, it was for some years awarded to the highest non-expert pair in the Swiss Pairs at the OBA Congress. Since 2017 it has been awarded to the winners of the Friendly Pairs event at the OBA Congress.
