Happy New Year everyone! The final masterpoint totals for 2025 are in, and you’ve all been very busy indeed!
The ACBL tracks three masterpoint races. The Mini-McKenney is all points except online colorless points. The Helen Shanbrom Ace of Clubs is black points from club games, and the Ace of Virtual Clubs is online black points in virtual club games. Each award is also categorized by how many MPs you had at the start of 2025.
Congratulations to everyone!
