CLUB NEWS Download Club Sessions to Your Own Calendar We have now implemented a facility to enable members to download to their personal calendar (eg on smartphone, tablet or desktop PC) all the club events for a particular night. You will find the instructions after the bridge calendar. Read these carefully before you start, as the instructions are different for different calendar types. Entertainment Books This year the club will again be selling the very popular Entertainment Books. We receive a small sum from every book sold on behalf of the club and we have allocated these funds to building maintenance (boring but necessary). You can order your Entertainment Book here, and please pass the link on to any family or friends who are interested so the club gets credited with these sales too. NZ Bridge System Card From 24 September 2013, the new NZ Bridge system card, with at least the two outer pages completed, has been required at all "A" point tournaments. From 24 February 2014, this will now be required at all tournaments run under the auspices of NZ Bridge. The use of any other system card except the ABF Standard System Card will not be permitted. You can download a PDF copy of the NZ Bridge System card here. This page also contains instructions for electronically updating the card using Adobe XI.
