I’d like to give you an introduction to masterpoints and the work involved to have them appear in your masterpoint record.

As in other countries the Australian Bridge Federation (ABF) coordinates a masterpoint scheme. Its three main goals are to:

• Stimulate interest in Contract Bridge,
• Provide a means of measuring player achievements, and
• Assist with the financing of the ABF’s national and international commitments.

As a club we aspire to facilitate enjoyable bridge for all. The diversity of our bridge players can add to this enjoyment - but can also present challenges if behaviours learned elsewhere conflict with common courtesy and the ethical foundations of our game. The club wants to encourage and celebrate positive behaviours and identify and appropriately respond to other behaviours that might threaten our goal of enjoyable bridge for all.

Our volunteer run club needs to upgrade its marketing, both to support its important bridge education strategy (principally by attracting new beginners) and to enhance its internal and external image during its premises changes over the next few years. We would love to use any marketing experience and skills you (or a family member or friend?) may have gained in the past.

How this might work in practice depends on the experience, skills and willingness of those we are able to attract. There is also a possibility that we might be able to find a marketing student intern that might join the team.

If you (or someone you know) are able to offer us marketing experience and skills, please talk to me (David Farmer 0415 715 743) or to our Secretary, Simon Hunter (0451 130 330). Thank you in advance!
