Bridge Victoria

A 2 week Swiss Pairs event

Substitutes

Players are reminded of their obligation under the Bridge VictoriaTournament Regulations (clause 4 page 6) (link here) to notify the  Match & Tournament Committee MTC@bridgevictoria.au  of the need to use a substitute. This notification should be made as soon as you are aware of the need for a substitute. This policy has often been ignored and will now be strictly enforced.  Failure to notify will automatically incur a scoring penalty and if the substitution is deemed unsuitable it may result in disqualification.

You are also required to find a substitute of a similar ability.  Substitutes deemed overweight will automatically receive penalties as prescribed under the Regulations.
