Clear Lake Bridge Club

New to the club? Regular Partner out of town?  Need a Partner for a specific game?  

Lots of ways to find a Game Partner...some are more work than others. 

We have some 'tools' to streamline the process

♣️♣️♣️

😁 NEW TO THE CLUB?

Contact our Partnership Chairpersons

• We are so HAPPY you are here...and enthusiastically welcome you to your new 'bridge home'!
• Asking Judith or Jeannie for help is most suited for NEW Members of the Club who do not yet know anyone and have not established a network of players.
• Regular/longer term players could notify one of the Partnership Chairpersons that they are available if anyone is looking but should not rely on them to set up their Play Dates.
  
• FOR OPEN PLAYERS, CO-CHAIRS
  • Judith Rebmann   TEXT ONLY 512-698-2701
  • Jeannie Stone       TEXT ONLY 832-594-3678
• FOR PLAYERS WITH FEWER THAN 300 Masterpoints
  • Edna Rice               TEXT ONLY 713-594-0140

💻 FOR TECHies!

Use our Pianola Bridge software...go to Clear Lake's electronic bulletin board showing who needs a Game Partner.

There is a ONE-TIME set up process then the system is as simple as selecting a game.   

•  https://app.pianola.net/PartnerFinder
• Post your Advert (advertising you need a Game Partner)
• When you get a Partner, be sure to delete your Advert.

📝 PAPER & PENCIL!

Don't like electronics?  In that case, when at the Club, check the Partnership Table.

• Is there a Partnership Slip for someone looking for a Partner for the Game you want?
• Create you own Partnership Slip and leave it on the table.

📞 PHONE CALLS YOUR GIG?!

Bring out the CLBC Club Directory~

• The Directory is updated once a year after Annual Dues are collected.  When Dues are paid on time (by approx Jan 15h), the Directory is updated for all who 're-upped', printed and left on the cabinet underneath the Score Monitor in the main room. They are free to our Membership...take one home.
• Start calling around~
• Be sure to pay your Dues to be included in the Directory

 A full-scale poster is at the club for simplified instructions on using PartnerFinder in Pianola.  A handout is also available at the club.

Caveat:  You must be a member of the club to be included in our database of players.  If you are new to the club, you simply tell the Director you want to join the club, complete the New Member Form, and pay the Annual Dues of $25.  We will include you in our database and you will get an "Invite" from Pianola telling you we have included you in our system and asking you to set up your record with a password.

Have a Partner...but not a full team? If you enjoy Team Games and a lovely Sunday afternoon we may be able to help you put together a Team. 

First: Put your Pair on the Team Sign Up Sheet at the club...another Pair may sign up with you.  

Second: Bob Dowlen will try to help out by connecting available partnerships.

Bob is responsive to text messages...so let him know you are looking and then follow up when the game gets closer.
