The next session will be led by Marion Michielsen, a Dutch-Swedish professional bridge player.

So that players can gain the most from this training we have made some administrative changes:

Team Registration 

1. Will be solely through the coordinators and not directly by the players. Registration Link

2. In light of the excessive interest in our  training program, and in order to allow equal opportunity to all NBOs who wish to participate, each NBO will be eligible to register up to 3 teams.

3. In the event that there are more than 3 teams please inform us and they will be on Stand By and if possible, included.

4. For the next session we will provide personal links for each pair. This will take them directly to their seats. You will forward the links to the players.

Effective Trainings

In order for the trainings to be effective, we request that you register only players who meet these conditions:

1. A reasonable level of English in order to benefit from the training

2. Competitive players striving to partake in EBL's events. 

Preparations of players NEW to the RealBridge platform:

Many players didn't make the necessary preparations as requested. This could have solved a lot of problems and time, during the first session.

So, for next time:

1. We suggest you translate this page to your local language and ask the players to read it. 

2. Should you sent it to us, we will be happy to add it to the FAQ page on the WBC website.

3. Ask the players to join a drop-in practice session, to allow them to familiarize themselves with the system. 

The schedule can be found here

4. Please note that using UNDO is allowed for a genuine miss-click, but not for carelessness.  Also, please make sure the players are aware of the need to self alert.  

Sessions Framework

1. We have reduced the number of boards to 15.

2. We will use Swiss teams format and play 3 rounds of 5 boards each.

3. After the playing session, there will be a 1 hour lecture.

Adhering to Time

Punctuality is crucial to the success of the training session, so please respect the time schedule.

We plan to start our next session on time. Players must login 20 minutes prior to the starting time. 

Late comers will not be allowed to participate and this may affect their future participation as well. 

"COMMITMENT is the Name of the Game" 

The day before the next session, Women's Coordinators are requested to make sure that the registered teams from their NBO, are actually participating. 

To change a team or players, please notify us and we will change the data manually.
