State Mixed Pairs Qualifying

state mixed

The Tournament Committee has decided to restructure the State Mixed Pairs Qualifying events, so that they will now run as part of our regular duplicate sessions at East Lindfield, North Ryde and on RealBridge.

The duplicate sessions are:

  • East Lindfield     Thursday, 8th and 15th April at 1pm
  • RealBridge         Wednesday, 21st and 28th April at 1.30pm
  • North Ryde         Saturday, 1st and 8th May at 1pm

(N.B. Mixed pairs are encouraged to enter, but you are welcome to play in same sex partnerships in these duplicates if you wish -- the mixed pairs will just be run at the same time within the normal duplicate session) 

These will be terrific events to play in:

  • The best mixed pair over the two sessions at each venue will qualify for paid entry to represent North Shore Bridge Club at the NSWBA State Mixed Pairs Finals on the weekend of 29/30 May.
  • These sessions will attract red master points at State Championship level (1.5 times a normal red point event).
  • The cost is the same as a regular duplicate session.
  • You can play in all three if you wish.

So please get involved, either in your regular partnership or start up a new one. There is no need to pre-enter - you can just turn up on the day(s).

Finally, can I just reiterate that if you normally play on these days in a same sex partnership you are most welcome to play as usual.
