I only have one concern. How does the system control against the potential for cheating?

Subject: [Unit559board] Virtual bridge club

Incoming ...

Dave White has been working to get all of District 23's bridge clubs represented online with BBO. They have several games online now serving the Santa Clarita and Glendale units.

The existing sanction holders in Pasadena, Downey, and Pomona units generally aren't equipped to offer a virtual bridge club -- Downey and Pomona barely have enough players.

Dave is working with headquarters, and made the suggestion to create a new virtual bridge club that would offer games for the benefit of these three units. He asked me to be the club manager. (I have already been directing games on BBO for him and Paula.)

I don't know if they will streamline the approval process for a new sanction. If not, I assume it will need approval from all three unit boards in some form to waive the 30-day waiting period for a new club sanction.

I'm attaching a draft copy of my sanction application here. I'm calling it the "Pasadena Pomona Downey VBC" (virtual bridge club).

The game scheduling will be a little haphazard, and very much under control of BBO. I'll propose games at 11:30 on Monday and Wednesday, and a limited game at 7:00 p.m. Monday.
