dickey38 Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 I just came across an entry under Competitive: ACBL Virtual Clubs. Any details available on what this is and how it works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerardo Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 Those tourneys are organized by brick-and-mortar clubs, which doors are currently closed due to covid-19. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudH Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 Presumably, the ACBL Virtual Clubs will be where ACBL clubs will be able to run games with only their club members participating. BBO, ACBL, and possibly also the Common Game are working on making this a reality, hopefully within a few weeks. In the meantime we have the club benefiting black point games available.

barmar Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 That's exactly what it is, but it already started a couple of days ago. We started a trial with a few clubs, and we'll be opening it up to more clubs as the days go by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve already collected everyone’s BBO usernames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the status of this -- How do I as our local club online organizer prepare for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barmar Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 ACBL is busy setting up all ther material on their site, your club manager should hear from them when they're ready to open it up widely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
