CONVENTION CARD INFO

The ACBL laws require each player to have a completely filled-out convention card placed visibly on the table. Some people do this manually and keep them. Others fill them out each time and throw them away. Some people have convention card holders to preserve their cards because that is easier (and usually neater) than making a new card each session.

And some people have convention cards that are neatly printed in those holders. Here is how you can get your own convention card to print. (The holders are very inexpensive and can usually be found at any Regional tournament, or can be ordered online.)
