In January 2012, we started the 3rd Online World University Team Bridge Championships organized by FISU and the WBF.

I'm very proud to announce that 61 university bridge teams with a total of 327 athletes from all around the world have entered for this competition.

As a result, this competition is:

• the biggest World Championships competition in any FISU sport in FISU history (!)
• the biggest youth competition for bridge in WBF history (!)

This enormous success shows that University Bridge is very much alive all over the World. You find the list of the participating university bridge teams below and they are also on the Unibridge Website

The competition will run through to July 2012, and if everything goes well, we will play the final during the 6th FISU World Bridge Championshipsin Reims.

During January and February 2012, the 61 teams play in groups with the two leading teams from each group, together with the four best third ranked teams determining the 32 teams for the knockout phase which will end with the Final in July.

All information is available on www.unibridge.eu and facebook account "Uni bridge".

I thank you all for the support and will keep you updated about this event.
