It is primarily for the Berwick club players as an introduction to playing tournaments on BBO. Many of the club have recently started playing on BBO, particularly in the Acol Club, but tournaments will be a new experience and hopefully this will provide a friendly start.
The tournament is also open to everyone that I have marked as friend on BBO (all 350+ of you). I hope that some (many) of you will play to increase the numbers, introduce different systems to an Acol-based community, and generally meet new people. As the club consists mainly of intermediate players, it would be an ideal opportunity for experts to play with a mentee or less experienced partner.
After the tournament I plan to open a teaching table to discuss some of the hands.
The tournament is #296 Berwicker BBO Pairs and registration is open until the tournament starts. Both members of a pair must be online to register. Singles can use the Partnership Desk.
If you wish to play and have difficulties registering, then just message me (paulg) on BBO. It may be that I have inadvertently failed to mark you (or your partner) as a friend.
This is a one-off event and you may play (almost) any system.

The Acol Club runs a regular Wednesday evening tournament if you play Acol and want to participate in regular online tournaments and there are many other tournaments available every hour on BBO.
