  • President's Report to Congress Montreal
    President’s Report to Congress Montreal, Canada Wednesday, 21st August 2002 Presidents, Delegates, Ladies and Gentlemen: My thanks to all of you who are attending this Congress today. I am particularly grateful for your presence as we badly need strong cooperation between you, the NBO members, and we, the WBF and the Zones, to succeed in our strategy of development. We were hoping to have Marc Hodler presiding this Congress. You all know him. Marc is one of the most important personalities in the world of sport and has helped us enormously in our march towards Olympism. He is also one of us, as a bridge player and as former president of the Swiss Bridge Federation. All good reasons, above and beyond friendship, for the WBF Executive Council to have nominated him President of our Congress. I am also very pleased to acknowledge the outstanding and distinguished services that Marc has rendered to the WBF. Unfortunately, he has injured his leg in an accident and may only be able to join us next week. If he does, we will present him with the WBF Honours pin. 1. IOC Matters Let me try to update you on our actions, specially towards Olympism. You may be aware that since Maastricht, the WBF has been officially admitted into the GAISF (General Association of International Sports Federations) with 54 votes in favour, 6 abstentions and none against. For that reason, the recognition of your peers, following President Samaranch’s declaration and the elevation of the WBF to the status of International Sports Federation within the IOC, no one is entitled to dispute from now on the fact that “Bridge is a sport”.

  • The Conclusion of a Highly Successful Bridge Olympiad and (Summer
    The conclusion of a highly successful Bridge Olympiad and (Summer) Olympic Games raises questions that will arise if bridge is accepted into the (Winter) Games of 2006. The priority of the authorities is simply to get in, but here are some other policy matters worth debate: 1. Eligibility To represent a National Organisation, bridge has: birthplace, citizenship, residence, or first allegiance. How will the more restrictive Olympic rules affect these? 2. Gender The Summer Olympics had one sport, equestrianism, with events Open to either sex, and so no Womens event. Can bridge keep its unique Open/Women categories? If not, it must become Men/Women (as in the WBF Individual), or Open with no Womens event. 3. Age The Summer Olympics, it appears, had only one sport with an age limit event. Oddly, this was mens football (under 23). Does this kill the WBF’s idea of a Junior event to show bridge-players can be young? 4. Number of medal events In the Summer Olympics the team sports (baseball, basketball, beach volleyball, football, handball, hockey, softball, volleyball, and water polo) had only one event per gender and so at most two medal events. Other “combat” (two-sides) sports (badminton, boxing, judo, fencing, lawn tennis, table tennis, taekwondo, wrestling) had variations (individual, pairs, mixed, or weight) and so more medal events. Bridge would be pleased to have two events: Mens teams and Womens teams, but must choose a priority for other events if possible. 5. Performance-enhancing drugs Bridge has already accepted the IOC list of banned substances. It has so far avoided whether there are bridge-specific performance-enhancing drugs.

  • IBPA Bulletin 422, 1 March, 2000
    IBPA Bulletin 422, 1st March, 2000 Editorial Canada (Eric Kokish, George Mittelman, John Carruthers and Drew Cannell) won the Forbo in the Hague in fine style. The sponsor, Forbo-Krommenie, a leader manufacturer of floor-coverings, was celebrating its centenary and it has created the strongest team event in Europe outside the official championships. Restricted to 64 teams, many applicants had to be turned away. The Invitation Team event for The Netherlands, China, Italy and the USA was won by the home team. All four fielded players who had won World or Zonal championships. * * * * * * * The Generali Masters, the effective World Individual held every two years, is in Athens next month (see anouncement inside). The defending champions are Paul Chemla in the Mens, and Migri Zur-Albu in the Womens. There will also be a Junior field of 20 players. José Damiani, WBF President, says Generali will be running a Clippings Competition for journalists, similar to that for Malta. Generali is also supporting IBPA by distributing the Year 2000 Handbook which goes to press shortly. However, the WBF is not running an Orbis Clippings Competition for Bermuda. Commenting on the Editorial last month, the President explained that the decision to restrict the number of tables with duplicated boards in the World Transnational Teams was based on security reasons, given the space available for the 76 teams. The worldwide favourable comment on Bermuda reflects the credit the WBF has earned for its organisation of the 50th Bowl and the Venice Cup there. * * * * * * Hotel booking for the Olympiad in Maastricht is already reported to be difficult and journalists hoping to stay near to the Convention Centre are likely to be disappointed.
