This event has traditionally been the best supported, outside of Congress, on the NCBA calendar. It is the last date of the calendar year and provided an opportunity for bridge players from around the county to meet up before the year end festivities and this year will be played on Sunday, 3rd December at The Costessey Centre in Longwater Lane.
If you have played in a heat at your club and would like to play please check the Entry Form page to make sure you have been entered, if your name does not appear on the lists please email me (link below) and I will sort this out for you.
All affiliated clubs within the NCBA are encouraged to participate and there have been a couple of changes made with the intention of allowing as many people to qualify as possible. These changes are:
♥ Two events will run in parallel for F2F and online bridge
♥ Where a club has more than one regular session weekly the club will be able to run a qualifying heat in each of those sessions
All of the competition rules can be found on the left hand menu, and, if more information is needed, please feel free to contact Neil Tracey
