Bridgemate II
The next generation scoring system
Bridgemate II is the successor of the popular and widely-used Bridgemate Pro scoring system. Bridgemate Pro is used by more than 2,500 clubs in 35 countries; it is the premier scoring system of 25 national bridge organisations, the World Bridge Federation and European Bridge League. Build on a track record of ten years, Bridgemate II offers you even more functionality and user-friendliness, all in a modern and slim design.
Key features

Same large keys as Bridgemate Pro. Four function keys have been added for unlimited extra functionality.
Large LCD screen; three times bigger than Bridgemate Pro and bigger than any other scoring system. Large and clear fonts make it easy readable for players of all ages.
An intuitive entry process of board results requiring only a minimum of key strokes. All information is entered on one screen.
Very low battery consumption. Bridgemate II runs typically about 500 sessions on one set of 2 AA batteries and is therefore very economical .
