Dear online bridge player, dear friend,

As you may know, we run a very simple Simultaneous Pairs at the end of January in aid of UNICEF – it is so simple that all we do is to email the participating clubs a set of hands to deal and play and they can then score it and put the results onto ECatsBridge as normal.
There is no fixed entry fee, all we ask is that they collect whatever you can, and send it to us, payable to the ECatsBridge Charity Account, so that we can collect it all together and send it on to UNICEF. It’s as simple as that – a fun evening, with a chance for your players to see how well they did. No prizes, no master points. Good, simple, bridge fun! And a chance to do some good for a very worthwhile Charity. We raised over £8,000 last year and it would be nice to try and do the same again.
The dates are Monday 25th – Saturday 30th January inclusive with different hands each night.

If clubs would like to join us, they just need to email me telling me which day they want to play, the club name and their country and I will send a zip file with everything they need to set it up. So - if you know of any bridge clubs that might be interested, perhaps you could pass this on to them ? Any and all publicity for the event is gratefully received so please encourage as many clubs as possible to come and join us.

Anna Gudge and Mark Newton
