History
The Chicago Mixed Board-a-Match Teams—one of the oldest ACBL events that was first played in 1929—is a four-session event with two qualifying and two final sessions. At one time it was restricted to players with at least 100 masterpoints, but now is an open event.
It was originally known as the Master Mixed Teams. In 1996, the name changed to the present designation. From 1946 to 1955, a separate event with national rating was held on the West Coast.
The winners have their names inscribed on the Chicago Trophy.
