Janice was a founding volunteer for SiVY (Silicon Valley Youth Bridge) and spent hundreds of hours mentoring both SiVy and Unit 498 bridge players.  Janice was a force at the bridge tables, having achieved the rank of Sapphire Life Master in 2019 and ending the year with more than 4000 masterpoints. Please RSVP BocceChick@gmail.com by February 5th if you are able to attend.

 

Please also attend our upcoming Sectional on March 8-9 which will include a dedication to Janice during our Sunday Teams event. 

Bridge Highlights from Kai Eckert

Our very own Unit Coordinator, Kai Eckert, is now a Bridge celebrity! He posts Bridge videos on his personal channel and the ACBL YouTube channel with many series on hand analyses, tournament recaps, and where he just plays Bridge. His most popular series is "It's Your Call" where he invites a guest and challenges them to a difficult bidding problem.

 

His goal: Build Bridge's popularity! As Kai sees it, "The only way that we get the next generation into Bridge is through internet promotion. We just need to show them that Bridge is fun and people will find it!"

 

 

If you are interested in supporting Kai on his journey on Bringing Bridge to internet stardom you can follow him on his channel and the ACBL channel
