 Financial Situation Titchfield Bridge Club

 1. At AGM it was agreed to charge £3/person/session from January 1st 2022 - this was based on a forecast of an average of 6 tables allowing us to break even or a small loss. 2. Year to date we have averaged 5.5 tables - this equates to a loss of in excess of £1000/annum & because mainly of increase in room rate 6.5 tables would be needed to break even. 3. To break even at current table level the charge/session would need to be of the order £3.50/session. 4. To return to an annual subscription which would be of the order of £160+(£80+/half year) we would need to know how many people would be interested to be able to determine actual amount & visitors fee ongoing. 5. The club has sufficient funds to cope with current loss rate for 2+ years. 6. Trustees still to decide what should be our ongoing strategy. 7. As a reminder any unused monies from members who had a £45 surplus not used by 30th June will be absorbed back into TBC funds - this again was agreed at AGM. 8. At the end of June we will issue a list of what personnel owe for attendances for April,May,June 2022 - prompt payment would be appreciated as we are in the process of changing our Bank. 

HEALTH MESSAGE
As we continue to live with COVID and are now in the Flu Season and to be considerate to others if you are feeling unwell or have a cold it would be appreciated if you refrain from attending the club until you have recovered.

As soon as any details are know, they shall be published here.

♠ ♥ ♦ ♣ 

Following recent incidents when boards have been mis-carded following a sit out, members are requested NOT to remove the cards but to view the hands which are available on the tablet.

Members are reminded that they must arrive by 6.55 pm at the very latest so that bridge can commence promptly at 7.00 pm.

Thank you 

  Remember when we have an arrow switch we rotate the boards and tablet anti-clockwise and the previous East move to what was the West (Now North) position. That way all the names are correct.
