Pesta Sukan Bridge Championships 2024: Exciting update! Don't miss!!
We have an exciting update for all of you!!!
We are pleased to announce the following enhancements to the Pesta Sukan Bridge Championships:
1. Reduced Prices for Open Teams: Prices have been reduced by at least S$100 for each category.
2. Discounts for Pairs: Open Team participants will get 50% off the indicated price for all pair events (excluding surcharges). This also includes the Mixed Pairs on Friday in the SCBA clubhouse. Players in the pair need not be from the same team.
• Pre-discount prices have been adjusted slightly to round off to an even number.
3. Catered meals: Buffet lunch will be catered for Saturday and Sunday, compared to Saturday only previously. Bento is still provided for Saturday dinner.
Save the date!
The Pesta Sukan Bridge Championships 2024 will be held from the 6th to 8th December between SCBA's Bishan Clubhouse and Canberra Community Club's Multipurpose Hall.
Our annual flagship event is now brought beyond the SCBA clubhouse again in a bid to scale up the event while maintaining the balance between international competitions and serving the social, non-competitive segments of our Bridge-playing community.
All are welcome!
Please look forward to the circular for very important information regarding the event to ensure a good tournament experience.
Sponsors: We are still looking for sponsors to help us with cost control. Please contact luwen@scba.org.sg if you are interested in supporting this ambitious event :)
