NZ Bridge Trials for the Asia Cup

 

Our international teams are heading off in two months to the WBF in Denmark. We wish them well.

However, we are already thinking about 2026. I can advise NZ Bridge plans to send up to four teams to the Asia Cup, which will be held in India, likely June (dates tbc) in either Goa or Kolkata.

There are four sections, Men, Women, Mixed and Seniors.

The Men’s trials, should they be required, will be held over 21 to 24 November – one week after the end of the NZ Congress.  Entries will be in teams of four. Open entries can be received with the Chef de Mission after 1 September, but will close early to mid-October (date tba).

Entries for the Women’s and Mixed will close mid-December, and trials will be held for one or both of these groups as required and determined by the selectors.

Seniors entries will close soon after the second of these two groups are finalised.

 

Please note that the Asia Cup rules allow for TWO teams in each section from each country. NZ Bridge will be supporting, at most, ONE team in each section.

 

This message will be put on the NZ Bridge web site.

 

Regards

Jonathan Westoby

Chef de Mission
