The Recorder

If you have concerns about ethics, unpleasant or offensive behaviour during events at the NSWBA which you feel are not covered by the laws of bridge, or which you don’t want to raise with the Director at the table, then you can raise them with George Finikiotis. Speak to him personally or email him:-

Perpetual Membership

The NSWBA has Perpetual memberships for sale at $850. This equates to approximately 11 years subscription at the current annual rate of $75. For die hard bridge enthusiasts this might be an expense worth considering and will reap benefits for you in the long run.  No worrying about renewals especially if you go away at the end of the year when membership renewals are due.  Your annual capitation fees to the ABF will be paid automatically also if you keep/make the NSWBA your home club.
