The ACBL is exploring new kinds of games and programs for face-to-face clubs to encourage more engagement at the club and in their community.
 
Several new and potential options are described below. These games and events would potentially award upgraded masterpoints (amount to be determined later).
 
Please answer the questions to share your feedback on these games and programs.
