bridge club - internal competition
by Lien, Chong 03 Nov '19

03 Nov '19

Hi everyone, We're holding our annual internal pairs competition soon! The details: Date: 19th November, Tuesday Time: 6:00-9:30 pm Location: Blackett 741 There's also a £3 entry fee per person, all of which will be funnelled towards the pizza fund for the day. As usual, everybody gets to suggest toppings, as long as they actually go on a pizza (you'll get exclusive access to the super-secret pizza suggestion form after buying a ticket). Tickets here!<https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/shop/club-society-project-products/bri…> We'd definitely recommend everybody to participate, as it's a good opportunity to see how you're playing compared to everyone else as everybody will be playing the same boards. Don't worry if you don't have a partner to come with, as we'll help to pair everyone up together on the day. Also, the London Cup, an inter-university teams competition (open to everyone!), is happening on 30th Nov, so this is a great chance to play in a competition before then. Email us at bridgeclub(a)imperial.ac.uk or speak to us during this week's session if you've got further questions. By the way, we're having our usual weekly session on Tues, 5th Nov at 6-8pm in Blackett 741. Biscuits will be available, as always. Signing off, the committee p.s. please don't choose olives.

Bridge - competitions!
by Lien, Chong 20 Oct '19

20 Oct '19

Hi everyone, We've got a few competitions on the horizon for everyone to take note of: Portland Bowl Details here<https://www.ebu.co.uk/competitions/portland-bowl>. This is basically a knock-out tournament organised by the English Bridge Union that occurs throughout the year, with the first match around December. We're looking to form two teams of 4-6 players each that will compete in this. Sign up here<https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=B3WJK4zudUWDC0-CZ8PTB2u…> by the end of the week if you're interested to playing for us. Please email us<mailto:bridgeclub@imperial.ac.uk>, or talk to me on Tuesday, for any questions on this. Internal pairs competition Once again, we're holding our annual internal pairs competition, where members can pair up and compete for glory. Currently, we're looking to have this on 19th Nov. More details to follow as I attempt to figure out the union's computer system works - unfortunately, technology continues to elude me as it always does. London Cup London Cup is a single-day event team match (four players in a team) to be held on 1st Dec (somewhere in London, I would think). Unfortunately, I've not been able to get more details for now, but do keep your calendars open for this if you're interested in trying out competitive play, as there will be players from universities all over the UK participating, and it's open to players of all skill levels, meaning that it's a great starting point to get a feel of things. Ending off Buy membership<https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/activities/a-to-z/bridge> if you haven't! Competitions are only open to members, so don't miss out on a chance to participate in these stellar events. Also, as usual, we'll be having our weekly club sessions on Tuesdays; this week's session will be on 22nd Oct at 6-8pm in Blackett 741. See you later, the committee

Bridge Club Taster Session tomorrow
by Lien, Chong 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

Hi everybody! Hope everyone has had a great time this past week, either enjoying Welcome Week or just getting back into the groove of things. We're having our taster session tomorrow, 8th October, at 6-8pm in Blackett 741. It'll be a pretty casual session, where we'll hopefully be able to let everybody who comes try out the game. As usual, we'll have biscuits available. We've also made a introduction guide that's attached, so if you're unfamilliar with the game, reading it before tomorrow would definitely help you get into the swing of things quickly. Don't worry if you don't understand some parts, as we'll hopefully be able to answer any questions tomorrow (or just email me anytime). See you tomorrow, Chongyou, on behalf of your committee

Mailing List! (and other more interesting matters)
by Lien, Chong 30 Sep '19

30 Sep '19

Hi friends, TL;DR: join our mailing list<https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=B3WJK4zudUWDC0-CZ8PTB2u…>, visit us tomorrow at Welcome Fair at 11-4 and Blackett 741 at 6-8, and buy membership<https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/activities/a-to-z/bridge>! Welcome back to another (exciting?) year! Tham (our treasurer) hopes you had a great summer! (and of course, so do all the rest of us here in the club 😄) As part of our requirements under GDPR, we are required to update our mailing list at the beginning of every year. If you wish to continue to be updated on the latest epic happenings at Imperial's one and only bridge club, please do fill up this form<https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=B3WJK4zudUWDC0-CZ8PTB2u…>! Welcome Fair is also tomorrow, and we have a booth! Visit us at the Activity Space in the Union Building on Level 1, opposite the Union Dining Hall, from 11am -4pm, and try our home-made brownies! (they're not made just yet but Thomas guarantees that they will be of the highest standards.) We'll also be chilling afterwards at the usual room at Blackett 741 from 6-8pm afterwards for a really casual session. Lastly, membership is available again this year, so please do buy membership at the Union page<https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/activities/a-to-z/bridge> if you enjoy what we are doing! This goes a long way to support the club, and we promise we won't spend the money on horrible tasting biscuits. Speaking of biscuits, if you are an Official Member (TM), you will get to choose the biscuits we buy (reasonably, anyways). Looking forward to a great year ahead, and many more great memories together! Signing off (with way too many exclamation marks), chongyou on behalf of the rest of the committee guys

Hi all, I hope all your exams have gone/are going/will go well. Just a quick email to let you know that bridge is on as usual tomorrow, and that we have sorted out our end of term dinner! The restaurant looks great, the food will be lovely (three courses and a glass of sparkling wine), and the whole evening will be top quality. We'll confirm precise details soon, but it will be on the 30th of June. Attached is a list of people who we think are coming; could you please have a look at it and let me know if you're not on it but were expecting to be on it, or if you're on it but aren't coming. We will be charged a considerable amount if we get the numbers wrong, so please take a minute to check. See you tomorrow, Jack
