Newer Player MP Update
The second Monday of our 0-49 point game offering only drew two attendees, so we have decided that this game will no longer happen. For anyone with fewer than 20 MPs, you will have a chance once a month to attend a Newcomer Game as part of our Supervised Play offering. The last Wednesday of each month will be a REAL game where you can earn masters point and discover the thrill of competitive duplicate bridge.

2024 Unit 549 Ace of Clubs Results
Each year ACBL releases the top face to face Club Master Point winners. The Ace of Clubs competition was created in 1984. This award was renamed in 2011 in honor of Grand Life Master Helen Shanbrom of Tamarac FL. Shanbrom was one of the most active players in the ACBL for decades and won the top category of the Ace of Clubs more times than any other member in ACBL history. Only Black Points earned face-to-face at Club sanctioned events (excluding NAP/GNT qualifiers and STaCs) are counted. Click HERE to see if your name is on the list!

Congratulations to those achieving ACBL master status:
Junior Master - Mary Kay Boutilier, Stephen Capon, Weihua Chang, Don Lochhead, John Rosicky, Susan Rowe, and Harris Simon.
Club Master - Donna Ballew, David Fisher, William McGurk, Harris Simon (he’s just racking up those points!)
Sectional Master - Jere Lyster
Life Master - Steven Anthony

Partnerships
No individual can win a game by himself - Pele
BCNC is extending it's wildly successful "Guaranteed Partnership Program" for the 0-499 Games. You must arrive no later than 8:45 AM to participate.
The volunteers serving as Guaranteed Partners are NOT looking for a permanent partner themselves. If you are in search of a regular partner, we recommend to keep playing and let your wonderful table etiquette and skilled card play do the talking. Many thanks to Susan Ahlquist and John Mullin for organizing this program.
Open Game Partnership Requests can still be made by filling out the Contact Us Form below and putting Open Game Partner Request in the subject line. Please include your name and contact information in the body of the text and someone will be in touch with you. These requests must be made more than 24 hours in advance.
