Our Summer Swiss Teams Series is great fun and grants masterpoint awards for every match your team wins! All are welcome although bridge experience is needed. Help will be available if you are unfamiliar with Swiss Teams. Winners will receive black masterpoints.
ABOUT SWISS TEAMS
Each team is composed of a North/South and East/West pair. Both pairs play the same hands against an opponent team. When you finish a series of hands, your team gets together to compared how each did on the same hand. Your team adds the scores and receives IMP points based on each result. The team with more IMP points wins the match.
