Contact Ken at pasa49@pacbell.net if you need a Mentor for the Mentor-Mentee games or Swiss teammates.

Mentor-Mentee Game conditions:

- Regular partnerships with less than 750 each may play together;
- Any Mentor may play with any Mentee, provided the Mentee has less than 750.
Patience & Teaching
Trying to teach or give advice during a game is not effective and might even be seen as a violation of ACBL rules
(see Law 74.A.2, Etiquette of Word and Action: A player should carefully avoid any remark or action that might cause
annoyance or embarrassment to another player or might interfere with the enjoyment of the game.)
- Don't teach at the table; waiting until the game is over is much more effective
- Giving advice during the game is bad strategy, typically unwanted and could easily be wrong
- Talking about a board/result often reaveals details of the board to other players
- Even well-meaning advice might be taken as criticism, which is unethical, rude and a violation of the Laws
