To all Club Secretaries / Contacts,
Please find on the GSMBA Website the entry forms for this year’s County Championships / National Qualifiers 2025-2026. Can you make all members of your club aware of these and if possible, place them up on your notice boards?

A few things to note again this year:
All competitions will be held at Kingsway Community Centre, Quedgeley. Parking at Kingsway will be limited so try to car share as much as possible for these events.

PS
If any registered members are interested in participating in the upcoming championships but do not currently have a partner or team within their club, please let me know. I am compiling a register of available players and will explore the possibility of forming mixed teams from different clubs across the county.
This is a great opportunity to get involved, meet new players, and have the chance to compete.
Please get in touch using above contact details.
Kind regards
Chris
