Why WBS?
For clients, customers, sponsors and students (we use these terms almost interchangeably), here's why:
1) A chance to engage an outstanding bridge professional - some of our pros are among the best in the world, with the highest demand (and the highest fees) on the open market. Others are solid players, prominent professionals who are not quite as expensive. We also represent several of the best junior players in the country (some would say we have all of the top five). Many clients like to play with these young (20ish, now - the oldest is 22) - bridge pros - in doing so, they help support the ACBL junior program.
2) A chance to get the benefit of all the various WBS services - whichever pro from WBS you hire, your program will be overseen by Glubok himself, with the support of top pros like Joe Grue and Ron Smith - close to 100,000 masterpoints between the three of them, and over a dozen national championships.
3) The likelihood that your game will improve substantially. Glubok and the rest of the WBS crew are among the top bridge players and teachers in the world - gaining strong access to players of that elite caliber can only help your game.
If you like, we'll guarantee it (Promotions like "Guaranteed Improvement" and "Frequent Free Games" may not be combined!)

Why WBS?
For Pros:
At WBS, we represent pros in several categories:
1) Featured Pros: These are core members of the "WBS Family" - players like Alex Kolesnik and Joe Grue (also Ron Smith), players who helped Glubok launch the agency even before formalizing the operation with the introduction of Paulo Brum in 2024. Glubok is comfortable sending these players out to represent the WBS Clan in almost any circumstances - these players are always available to clients (not always cheap). They are our featured pros.
2) Affiliated Pros: These are players that we can fix you up with, for an online duplicate session, a private class (real life or virtual / zoom) or a tournament booking. In these instances, the client will deal more directly with the affiliated pro, and not tap into the wide range of WBS services (like extensive hand analysis and private bridge tutoring from other WBS pros).
3) Unaffiliated Pros: As a courtesy to other pros, we allow them to provide a link from our site to theirs.
As a courtesy to ourselves, we allow them to reciprocate, with a link from their site to ours.
For pros, affiliating with WBS, on any basis, has these advantages:
A) Access to new clients
B) Broad support Services from the agency - hotel bookings, hand analysis, client relations
C) Be Part of a Team - Reduce the Inevitable Isolation in the life of a Touring Pro
