If you wish, you can click Print
Movement Reports on the Setup
tab. This presents options to print
Table Cards
- these can be placed on each table, and show the pairs and boards due
at that table for each round. They also show what table each pair needs
to move to at the end of the round, and are especially useful for Howell
movements and Single Session Teams sessions.
(Note that if the movement has more than one stationary pair, for example
a 3/4 Howell, those pairs may need to alternate between NS and EW at that
table, and this means that pairs coming to that table sit in different
positions depending on the round. If this is the case, check the box "Stationary
pairs sometimes arrowswitch [x]", and this will suppress the direction
aspect of the movement instructions and will therefore just show a table
number and not specify a direction e.g. "NS to table 7" as opposed
to "NS to Table 7EW".)
Player Cards - this print a list of the seating positions and opponents for each pair throughout the session, and can be given to each pair at the start of the session. There is flexibility regarding the point size, as experimenting with this may allow you get print different numbers of slips per A4 sheet, depending on the number of rounds to print.
Master Sheet - a one-page report that shows players, board and rounds for the movement. Movements of up to 13 tables can be printed or saved as a CSV (spreadsheet) file. For movements beyond 13 tables, the printed report just lists the first 13 due to space constraints, but the CSV will show the whole movement.
Seating - this shows the initial seating for each pair in the event, based on the current template. This will be especially useful for multi-session Howells.
The Table and Player
cards can optionally show the player names if you import the names from
the Bridgemates before you print them. Having actual names rather than
Pair Numbers assists the flow of the movement considerably.
These reports can be run as normal reports, or as an Excel spreadsheet. For unusual one-winner sessions, it is recommended that you print out the Master Sheet, especially if you haven’t run the movement before.
