Founders Duplicate Bridge
Friday Duplicate Bridge
Would you like to enjoy a fun evening playing duplicate bridge? If
you are an intermediate player, we encourage you to join us. Although
we follow ACBL rules of Duplicate, we are not a sanctioned club and
do not award master points. We play in a relaxed atmosphere and
emphasize friendliness while competing seriously. Single players are
welcome. You can arrange for a partner by calling Phyllis Skall at
(858) 405-2684 or e mail pskall13@yahoo.com well in advance. You
need to be a resident of the community.
We play every Tuesday night at 6 pm in the Mykonos Room at the
Clubhouse. The membership fee is waived for your first game. Table
fees are only $2. The proceeds are distributed to the top winning
pairs.
Congratulations to the top winners for August:

Top score for the month: 66.12% Mary Sullivan / Phyllis Skall
We offer a Duplicate Bridge game that combines the superior scoring of Duplicate Bridge,
but also has the friendlier and non-aggressive attitude of home style Rubber Bridge. With
Duplicate Bridge, your true opponents are the pairs that hold the same cards as you would,
rather than your opponents at the table. We are not an ACBL game and for that, we not only
offer an extremely reasonable game price of just $2, but also give cash awards to the winners.
If you are interested, please call John Gates at (760) 295-5885, the president of this bridge
club, to see if this type of game might meet your expectations. We are relatively small and
have anywhere from five to eight tables. The games are at 1 pm on the second, fourth, and
fifth Fridays of the month in Mykonos. You do not have to join this club to play your first
game; however, if you decide to join, the annual dues are $6.
