Virtual clubs

All live clubs were forced to close their doors due to the crisis, but what is a club? A club is the community, not a building. Explore the new Virtual Clubs menu on BBO where you can play and socialize with your friends at your local club. Your club not listed there yet? Reach out to your NBO and ask if they are running an online virtual club program, or plan to offer one.
