2016 Manual
Hello all fellow directors .
The 2016 NZ Bridge Manual has been printed and is available on this site under Resources .
There is are a number of very interesting new documents, including
- Rules for National Rubber Bridge Competition
- General Tournament Regulations
- Code of Conduct
You can also purchase a copy of the manual for $23 plus packaging and postage .
Is it worth $23 ?
If you say Yes , I'll be pleased .
If you say No ,you probably havent read it .
.
Best wishes with your directing
Allan Joseph

Hi Allan
Good to see your post - and "Yes" I've (skimmed) read the Manual so that's 1 for you!
Best regards

Hi Allan, Peter
Are there any major changes in the new manual (apart from the new areas) ?
cheers, Giles

Hello Giles .
The present Regulations Sub Committee , Murray Wiggins ,Chief Director , Arie Geursen ( Chair NZ Bridge ) and myself have attempted to " restructure" the manual for easier reference .
Part A Administration
Part B Directing
Part C Tournament Organization
Part D Tournamentt Regulations
Part E Masterpoint Manual
If I were to suggest to fellow directors a good place to start , I would suggest Tournament Regulations
( pages D10 to D 40 ) . Lots of new stuff here .
Happy reading
Allan .

Just to let you know that the link to "new documents" doesn't work.

Hello Dale ,
It has been pointed out to me that if I underline something it suggests a link.
Ha ! A trap for the less computer skilled - there is no link !
I will be careful not to underline things from now .
Learning all the time .

Hi Allan, I think it is the most useful one I have read so far...wonderful! I went through it and explained it to my directors...
It is worth a lot more than $23!...we really get it cheap...considering all the work put into this.
Well done! I love these new sections...they are so much more helpful to directors.
Cheers

Hi Alan, I am a bit late...just having a wee browse aroung the forum...not sure I answered you in the other format...
BUt the Manual is extremely valuable..as far as I am concerned...Laws are very "legalistic" and the manual helps to interprete them.
I read all of it, put stickies here and there and made a "fast Index" for our directors at the club to find "quickly" the most common issues..
Every director at our club has one...and there is one for the Table in case...Great value for the price!
I just love it!
Cheers
Helene
