ACBL Unit 507 - Santa Clara Valley - Friendly Bridge in Silicon Valley

Club News

The San Jose Bridge Center is closed and will remain closed through May 3 in light of the updated shelter in place order issued by the Santa Clara County Health Officer.

However, the San Jose Bridge Club is quickly rising from the COVID-19 ashes and being reborn on Bridge Base Online as the virtual San Jose Bridge Club. There are now three ways to support your club financially through playing online.

(1) Click here to see the daily schedule of games offered online by the San Jose Bridge Club. The results of the online games are posted where you usually see the game results.

(2) If you can't make it to one of our club's games, the ACBL, partnering with BBO and the Common Game, is currently offering black points in 3 daily nationwide games, at 7 a.m., 2 p.m., and 4:30 p.m. PDT. If you play in one of those games, 80% of your entry fee will flow back to your local club.

(3) And if all those times are inconvenient, you can enter a daylong tournament, playing 18 boards with 3 robots at your convenience, again with the most of the entry fees going back to your local club. The ACBL has explained the details of these 18-board club support tournaments here.

If you are brand-new to online bridge, the ACBL has collected some tutorials here.
