| Social Bridge offered by EBU on RealBridge |
Large numbers of EBU members are playing online in our EBU games on BBO, in virtual club games on BBO and in the clubs running games on BCL and RealBridge. We also know that may of you prefer to play casual games online, rather than playing in a competitive duplicate event.
There has been a lot of interest expressed in RealBridge, an online platform developed by a couple of EBU members, which greatly enhances the social aspect of online bridge by integrating it with video and audio – so you can see and hear the other people at your table.
Combining these two things has led us to offer EBU Social Bridge, which allows you to play online within your own social circle – you arrange who your partner and opponents will be, swapping around if you like.
- Three sessions daily
- You can play up to 20 boards at any time during your chosen session
- You can have more than four players if you cut in and cut out
- £1.50 per person or £5 for the whole table
- Pay by logging in to My EBU -> Utilities -> Book Events, then send us an email to ebusocialbridge@gmail.com telling us which session you want to play
- We will set up a table for you with your name on and send you a link to give to your players
- We will be available at the start to help you all familiarise yourselves and deal with any problems.
This should suit those who like to play casual bridge online and those who are used to playing Chicago or rubber bridge.

| Bridge Club Live - play bridge onlne |
The club has registered with Bridge Club Live so members can take advantage of their online "club" facility.
Full membership is required to make use of the "club" facility and all the features. This only costs £12.00 for the first 30 days so well worth giving it a try (£25.20 for every three months after that). Please read the press release below and click here to go to the website
TO ALL BRIDGE PLAYERS and BRIDGE CLUB SECRETARIES
BridgeClubLive is adding ClubCentric facilities for F2F players whose clubs are closed and wish to play online.
- Until 31st March, Face2Face club bridge players who wish to continue playing bridge can do so online at BridgeClubLive at a special introductory rate of just £1 for 30 days.
- Club Secretaries are now invited to Register their Club so their members can then add their Club affiliation to their Profile. Members can then continue playing as if in their club with their regular partner from the comfort of their own home.
- The Main DIDO (DropinDropout) Tournament Room provides an automated movement to any partnership with a minimum commitment to 4 boards at each sitting. 96 boards are available throughout every day, and all players who complete 16 or more boards will appear on the next day's Leader Board. All boards are fully archived, and can be replayed at any time and compared with all others who have played the same board.
- BCL has a code of ethics covering politeness and fair play which is actively enforced.
- The club calculates a Past Performance Indicator which allows players to track their form. The formula was developed by BCL and later adopted by the EBU as the basis of the National Grading Scheme.
- As a CLUB FACILITY, a dedicated Ladder for each registered club lists the results for all those club members as a subset of the overall DIDO Tournament result. Each Club will have it's own single Web page with information, specific to that club and a list of players' ALIAS's who have registered online.
- All the other regular tournament rooms including a social room are also available and additional features and improvements geared towards each club will be rolled out according to demand and feasability.
CLUB MEMBERS
- To benefit from the CLUB facilities, each club member, must be a full member of BCL. There are many incentives to join right now.
- Go to the "CLUBS" page which is visible from the Main Menu page of BCL under "Members->Clubs". There you will see your other club members listed by ALIAS
- Play at any time of day or night in the DIDO room, and see your results specific to your partnership and other club members on the "CLUB" page.
- When online, you can now press a new 'LOCAL CLUB' button, and see just those members of your local club and whether they are online or playing or just waiting for a game.
