When Australia and New Zealand challenged UK and Ireland to a friendly, how could anyone say no?
Time difference a problem? not at all. There were 2 sessions, so many players just HAD to get up at the crack of dawn (some setting their alarms for 6:15am). For full details of results, see here:
Five directors looked after everyone. We encouraged learners to join in. As long as they had more than 6 months of lessons, that was good enough. They played in their own section, of course.

On Monday July 11 2022, The ACBL Educational Foundation held an online Charity game to raise funds to support junior bridge. The game was an overwhelming success, raising over $50K to help juniors with travel expenses and support other endeavors to promote the game among young people.
The effort came together quickly, taking only six week from conception to execution, and demonstrated the extraordinary support in the bridge community for promoting our game. Over 100 professionals volunteered their services which many patrons generously purchased while other patrons donated for the cause. The game was held on RealBridge where players could see and hear each other and consisted of 20 boards of matchpoints in two sections.
