An exciting, revised World Wide Bridge Contest is coming for 2016 with an amazing prize for the winning pairs – qualification to a Final to be held in Beijing, China from 23rd - 25th September with coverage for travel expenses, free B&B accommodation and a great prize fund!
The new contest will comprise six simultaneous pairs events to be held on Tuesday 26th & Thursday 28th April, Monday 9th and Wednesday 11th May and culminating with the final two on the traditional dates of Friday 3rd and Saturday 4th June. Clubs may enter one or more of the events. There will be commentaries on the hands published online after each tournament for the participants to download and enjoy.
From these events, 13 pairs will qualify for a 3-day final to be held in Beijing, China from 23rd - 25th September, joining a further 7 pairs from China, to play the 3-day final which will be played using BBO software.
Pairs participating in the final will have free B&B accommodation in double room, with free in-room Internet access offered by the Organization Committee. In addition the Organization Committee will provide each overseas player with US$1600 as subsidies for the round transportation expenses.
The final will have a prize fund of US$ 20,000
The 13 winning pairs will be selected as follows:
a) the winning pair from each of the six simultaneous pairs events, then
b) The winners from each Continent not having won an individual session PROVIDED they have scored over 55% then
c) The highest scoring pairs from any session to complete the required number of pairs in the final.
Entry fee euro 1.90 per player per event. Payment instructions will be sent with the information to the participating clubs.

More details and all the information about the technical aspects of the contest will be found at www.ecatsbridge.com .
Please encourage the clubs in your country to join us for at least one of these enjoyable events. They just need to email me and tell me which date or dates they wish to play, then about 3 weeks before the event I will send them a zip file with everything they need in order to run a heat. I will email clubs with whom I have contact for other events very shortly to let them know of this exciting new Simultaneous Pairs.
