♣ ACBL Live for Clubs -- https://my.acbl.org/club-results
=================

   ACBL is discontinuing the old Club Results page and posting all results on the new ACBL Live for Clubs site.  The new system is not yet working perfectly. It does not include information on contracts for some of our games and it does not display all games on the same page.

    We are working with ACBL to fix these problems. In the meantime, every time you play at the club, you should be receiving an email with a link to the game results.

    If you are not receiving these emails, you can opt in here:  https://my.acbl.org/club-results/set-preferences
You may be asked to log in to MyACBL. On the next page, click "Yes" to receive Player Score Emails, provide your address, then click "Save".
