Open to Intermediate A, Intermediate B, and Novice players. This season it is no longer necessary to have qualified from a local club qualifier; the competition is open-entry, but pre-entry is still required, and should be done via the CBAI online entry system http://competitions.cbai.ie/. The competition will be held over two sessions, with a 13:00 start.

As with all our virtual events this season, this one will be played essentially for recreation; Masterpoints will be awarded, but national titles (where relevant) and monetary prizes will not.

The ever-popular Yeats Country (Sligo) Congress will be held virtually again this year, once again as a charity event, with all proceeds to be donated to cancer charities in Sligo, Mayo, and Limerick. Schedule of Events
