*2015 Helen Shambrom Ace of Clubs and
Mini-McKenney Winners

Helen Shambrom, the most successful club player in the history of the ACBL, won the Grand Life Master category of the annual Ace of Clubs competition so many times that it was named in her honor in 2011.  Most of her 25,000 masterpoints were black points that were won at the club level.  Only masterpoints won at clubs count in the Helen Shanbrom Ace of Clubs races.

William McKenney was CEO of the ACBL in the early 1900s.  Beginning in 1938 the McKenney Award was given to the ACBL player who amassed the greatest number of points in a year.  Later that award was named the Barry Crane Award, and Mini-McKenney Awards were authorized to recognize players at the ACBL, district, and unit levels.  Masterpoints won at clubs and at tournaments count in the Mini-McKenney races.
