Teams
The Saturday games in August will be a Swiss teams event.
Entry is slightly more complicated,but …
  • if you have difficulty with the procedure you can simply enter as a pair in the normal way and take pot luck on the other half of your team ;
    OR
  • You can contact me during the week before (Monday to Friday)  & if you assemble your team online I will assist you to register one or more days in advance ;
    OR
  • For those teams that have mastered the team registration procedure entry will be open as normal from 2 hours before competition start.
One small caution, I am still building my experience running BBO Swiss, so there is still an experimental element to teams games.

The first teams match will be on Saturday 15th August.

Instructions for joining a teams event are here -> https://paddybbo.blogspot.com/2020/06/how-to-register-for-bbo-teams.html
