A number of Websites are making themselves available more easily due to the Coronavirus epidemic

Below is a letter provided to the Telford Bridge Club which outlines one approach from the EBU.

On the new "News Item" tab you will see that the EBU mention

three sites which can be used and one where the EBU are running daily events

The "Bridge Base Online" site has many sessions which are free of charge to use

Under the circumstances of the CV outbreak around the world,  we have been asked by many F2F clubs from around the world if we could provide a service to their own members in lieu of their normal club sessions as these were being cancelled.

We have reacted very quickly to provide a simple solution that is coming on stream from today. You may be one of those members?!

We hope it will alleviate the pain and yet provide a place to play with your own club members and of course other members of the main BridgeClubLive.

I hasten to add that those who expect us to create small individual isolated online clubs as parallel entities of your Face2Face clubs with full movements and so on, will be disappointed - it just isn't viable for either party to do that due to the relatively low numbers of each f2f club in themsleves. What we are doing however, is to maximise the utilisation of our well oiled features! And, we have a full range of tournaments and teams events that CAN be used as well.
