This is a new EBU event that will take place online on 31st May 2025. Somerset can enter up to three pairs for this event, which is open to all Somerset registered players below NGS 10 on 1st January 2025. The county will pay the entry fees for those three pairs.
Qualification will be based on performance in one of the three pairs events that Somerset is holding before the end of April – the Championship Pairs on 16th February, and the Mixed Pairs and No Fear Pairs on 27th April. Pairs will have their scores adjusted by the overall strength of the event in which they compete, so that they can choose which of the two events to enter. Pairs who enter both events will have their qualification based on the higher of the two scores that they record.
If you are uncertain as to whether you and your partner meet the entry criteria, please send an email to scbaselectors@gmail.com. There are over 500 players in Somerset who do meet the criteria, and we cannot publish a list with those names on.
