Master Points

The WBU operates a masterpoint award scheme for lifetime achievement, with promotion through the various ranks towards becoming a Grand Master. In addition every April we publish the Gold Point Ranking list, which is an indication of current form. Details of all the ranks and points required can be found here.

Noelle Bond, our Master Point Secretary, publishes comprehensive up-to-date information on her web site here.

In particular you can find there:

the latest Master Point promotion list
the leaders in the competition for the John Hockey trophy, for the most masterpoints registered in the year
the status of members' submissions to Noelle

as well as lots of useful FAQs (answers to Frequently Asked Questions) for members and for areas and clubs.
