| EBU National Pairs - Qualification 1-14 Feb26 |
In 2026 any pair that gets 55% or over in a club game between 1st and 14th Feb will be entitled to play in their Regional Finals on 22nd March. All club games that award full rate master points (those of 18 boards or more that are submitted by clubs under Code 10 or Code 12) will count and the clubs do not need to do anything special - if the game is played and submitted, players who get over 55% will automatically qualify.
There will be five regional finals, mostly run by counties from within the regions, on 22nd March with two online platforms (BBO and RealBridge) for each. Entry fees for theses regional finals will be £13 per player. Players may qualify from any club in the country but at least one player from each pair must have allegiance to a county of the region in which they play the regional final. Two players who both qualify in different partnerships may form a new partnership to play in a regional final.
