Harrogate Spring Congress Swiss Pairs

This stratified, 2-day, green-pointed event is operated by the
Yorkshire Contract Bridge Association on behalf of the EBU
and comprises nine 8-board matches as follows:

• Friday 7.30pm – 10.45pm [matches 1-3]
• Saturday 2.00pm – 5.15pm [matches 4-6]
Complimentary 2-course buffet supper
6.45pm – 10.00pm [matches 7-9].

The event is scored on a current-round basis, i.e. your
opponents for each round are determined by your overall
score at the end of the round just completed. Your next-
round assignments are notified via your Bridgemate, and via
the Bridgemate app Guide Card.

Each board is match-pointed across the field, and each
pair’s percentage for the eight boards is converted into VPs
using the scale below.
