| Changes to Game Fee at PBC |
|
Beginning August 1, 2025 the card fee for regular open games will continue to be $10 for members, $11 for non-members up to 10 minutes before scheduled game time. That would be 10:50 AM for daytime games at the PBC.
Card fees paid after the 10 minute mark will be $12 for members, $13 for non-members. Note that the player does not have to be present until scheduled game time, but payment must be made before the 10 minute mark to avoid the surcharge.
Players not ready to play at scheduled game time are subject to matchpoint penalties at the director's discretion.
