WBF Women’s Online Autumn Festival
November 6-12 2023 – BBO
Anna Maria Torlontano, who championed Women’s Bridge for its development, instigated the WBF/BBO online Women’s Bridge Festival. To play in the Festival is an opportunity to network, form partnerships and teams and then compete to the highest level in Bridge.
Winner of WBF Women’s Spring Festival 2023 was Deborah Smith, New Zealand Congratulations! Click here to read an interview with Deborah.
I like the format of the Women’s Festival. While some of the key events to play in are at difficult times of the day for me, I like the ability to partner robots as they make it easy to organise and make late decisions about which events to play or skip. The “best results” structure seems to work well.
