| Our Duplicate Bridge Games |
The following is a list of our games. If you are a member of our club, the cost to play* is $9.00 per game (or buy a 3-play ticket for $25.00). If you are not a member of our club, costs are 11.00 per play. Coffee/tea is included. Bring a partner and please arrive at least 15 minutes before the game start time to allow our Directors sufficient time to set up the game. * Cash only please.
Regularly scheduled games:
Monday 1:00 PM – There are two games that are offered, which play at the same time. Under 100MP - Both players must have under 100MP. (Generally fewer Boards are played which allows more time for play per Board. Cost for this game is only $6.00 for members and $7.00 for non members.) and an Open game – this game is open to all players
Tuesday 1:00 PM –Two players with under 750MP may play in this game. PBC Board has decided to allow players with over 750MP to play in the Tuesday game as long as they play with a player with UNDER 750MP. The intent of this rule is to allow for mentoring whereby an experienced player is paired with a newer/less experienced player.
Wednesday 1:00 PM Open Game - This game is open to all players.
Thursday 1:00 PM Similar to the Tuesday game, at least one of the players must have UNDER 750MP.
