| ECats Children in Need SIMS |
As usual Ross Bridge Club will be supporting ECats Children in Need SIMs to be played on Monday 9th November, on BBO. You are always very generous in contributing to this charity and we hope that you will continue to be so. Collecting contributions is obviously going to be different this year. BBO still expect us to pay their BB$ fee per person and will take their % commission from this. As we would like to maximise the amount the club sends to ECats we are asking you to make any contribution directly to our bank account or by cheque. Keith Ray will then send the total amount raised to ECats.
The bank account details for Ross Bridge Club are:
Sort code = 30-80-55; A/c No. 44009368
Cheques should be payable to Ross BC and sent to Keith at: Gardenholme, Sussex Avenue. Ross HR9 5AJ
If you make your contributions before the event Keith will be able to send the club dontation promptly to ECats.

Ross-on-Wye Bridge Club is now a virtual bridge club on BBO. There will be online pairs tournaments on Mondays at 7pm, starting 15th June.
These are open to Ross-on-Wye Bridge Club members and members of other local clubs, and are EBU registered events with master points and NGS.
To participate there are three basic requirements:
- You must be registered on BBO;
- You have a deposit of at least 3 BB$ in your BBO account;
- You must inform Chris Chowney at chris@chowneyflint.net that your partnership intend to play AND supply your BBO log-on names.
This is an easy and straightforward process but there is also a step by step guide which can be viewed by clicking here: RBC BBO Guide
Choose the menu item "Online Bridge" to find more detailed documentation.
There are also YouTube videos that show the various processes being used. Click on the descriptions to link to the videos, then press the start button to play.
The difference from face-to-face bridge that most people struggle with is "self-alerting" so please check this out.
Thanks to Newent Bridge Club for providing most of the documentation, and to Suffolk Bridge Association for the videos.
