ACBL Community Club: Fun and Glitter Points, In Person and Online
Uniting Go Local, The Real Deal and ACBL Clubhouse
What’s the ACBL Community Club?
It’s all about community – just like the name suggests! The ACBL Community Club brings together players from local clubs (the Go Local arm), the Real Deal, the ACBL Clubhouse for the same fun, friendly competition and special masterpoint awards.
That’s right! You could earn the same exciting glitter points (silver, red and gold) during special events, like Silver Linings Week, whether you play at your local club or in the Real Deal on RealBridge or the Clubhouse on BBO. Play your way!
What’s up next?
for these events!

The face-to-face clubs where you already play.
Why You'll Love the ACBL Community Club:
♣ Glitter Points Everywhere: You can earn glitter points online at both The Real Deal on RealBridge, and the ACBL Clubhouse on BBO. The ACBL Clubhouse holds glitter for extended periods during each face-to-face NABC. And The Real Deal has varied point upgrades and glitter, that change monthly.
♣ Clubhouse games have knowledgeable BBO TDs. Chat them a cordial Hello 😉! ♣ We only staff ACBL Tournament Directors who are friendly, responsive, and helpful at every turn.
♣ Perfect Fit for Everyone: Every game you play in either The Real Deal or the ACBL Clubhouse helps F2F clubs, because a portion of every entry fee goes directly to the player’s local club.
♣ More Masterpoints: Win up to 4 masterpoints in both these online clubs, and even more during some special events!
♣Results from the games for both of these games upload seamlessly to the Live for Clubs page for each. You will be able to see upgraded points – or glitter – when it loads there!
The Real Deal Offers Boutique Online Experience!
♣ The Real Deal embeds quality audio and video at every table at no extra charge. You can see and chat with friends every round, and when the Director comes to the table, it's in person! You’ll have the look and feel of an in-person club experience. Personal connections with real people.
♣ We only staff ACBL Tournament Directors who are friendly, responsive, and helpful at every turn.
♣ It's best to come to a Real Deal game with a partner (or a team), but if you don't have one we'll find one for you!
♣ The Real Deal has a different, special menu of masterpoints every month — often with unique formats not available anywhere else online!
♣ You get an email connection right to the top! The Real Deal has a friendly, knowledgeable concierge at realdeal@acbl.org. Please share your thoughts, experiences, and suggestions, and we promise to answer quickly.
The ACBL Community Club is the perfect place for club-loving bridge players to come together, in person or online. Now, you’ll earn the same glitter points in person that are held online – and you'll grab that next rank sooner! And your local club will get a share of your entry fees in either place!
Have fun and rack up those points!
Note: the ACBL Community Club does not include e-Clubs/Virtual Clubs.
