Wednesday Bridge
Rookie Row
The committee has decided to introduce a “Rookie Row” in the Wednesday session starting on Wednesday 4th March at 10am. This will be for a trial period of two months.
To be eligible all players must have fewer than 20 Masterpoints as at 29th February 2020.
Play will start and end at the same time as the main session but the boards will be scored separately. A standby player will be available.
We encourage you to support this initiative.
