WELCOME TO MY ABF!
My ABF is a system being developed by the ABF to assist the entire Australian bridge community.
It was first launched in December 2020 and has continued to expand since then. The system offers benefits to many groups within the bridge community.
See the separate pages for each group to find more information, help material (guides and videos) and notes describing the latest changes.

- Personalised dashboard with shortcuts to your account, your entries and your masterpoints
- Online entry and payment facilities for tournaments (shortly to extend to club sessions)

FUTURE EXPANSION
My ABF is continuously being improved and will no doubt evolve further over time – but the main areas still to come are:
- Extend the online payment facility (“bridge credits”) so it can be offered for club sessions as well as for Congresses
- More comprehensive member management for clubs
- Incorporate the ABF masterpoint centre functions
- Offer a scoring solution for club duplicates and tournaments
