Please arrive at least 10 minutes before game time.
Players arriving late may play only at the discretion of the game Director.
Any player feeling sick in any way should stay home.
To help us with planning, we ask that you put your game on our calendar.
We are aware of the flaws in the reservation system. We have no control over it.
When it does not work, just come to the club and play.
Need a partner? Contact the partnership co-chairs (Barb Balents and Juliene Richards) at sbbc.partnership@gmail.com
Drop-ins are welcome but finding a partner is not guaranteed.

NAP Games Are Coming!
There are 12 North American Pairs (NAP) games each in July and August. These games award masterpoints in 50% Red and 50% Black. The stratification limits are set as Unlimited/3000/750(NLM only)
Life Masters with fewer than 750 points can play in 749er games and earn points but will not be eligible for qualifying. To quality, they must play in Open games where they are eligible for Strat B.
STaC Week in August
All games during the week of 8/18 pay 100% silver points. You also have chances to earn a lot of overall bonus against all other players in District 22.
