- Tournament Reduction
- I'm totally opposed to this idea.
- Best Practices Workshop
- I agree with Jeff that the teaching world needs more material for new teachers to work with and feel good about. It shouldn’t be perusing an 8-foot table and making a huge decision. I also think that having a tiered system makes sense. I would prefer the ABTA to ...
- On Ethics, Proprieties, Laws, Regulations and Beginning Bridge Players
- I feel these questions are best answered when they come up and not before. We want to keep the game as fun as possible without inflicting ethics rules until complaints or questions surface. I like this example because it has happened to me and, since it involves pre bidding box ...

- To Pros and Sponsors: Encouraging Super Bracket KO Events at Our Regionals
- I should have used the term "high masterpoint players" or something similar instead of "pros". Please forgive me and my poor semantics. At this time, we envision a super-flight in bracketed KO events (or something else that may be appealing to this demographic that we don't even know about ...
- To Pros and Sponsors: Encouraging Super Bracket KO Events at Our Regionals
- We'd love to have an embarrassment of riches but that is not the case today. I certainly hope and believe that we can get there. If there is something that we can do, I need to know!
