Consider playing Bridge at Bridge Base Online. The ACBL and Bridge Base have created "Virtual Clubs", under the ACBL World link on Bridge Base. To be automatically eligible to play in a game you must have played in any game at Unit 110 Club within the last year. If you would like to play but do not meet that criteria contact the director. Here are links to some BBO tutorials: https://www.acbl.org/bbotutorials/ COMPREHENSIVE Tutorial (38min) for new players
Virtual Club games open for registration 2 hours before scheduled game time. You and your partner must be signed on to register. After you register you just have to be signed on a few minutes before game time - Board 1 will pop up when automatically when the game starts.
Register early if possible, it helps the director, also the games can fill up. If you need a partner let the director know.
