We hold four regular weekly playing sessions: Monday 6.30pm (Silver Division); Wednesday 6.30pm (Bronze Division); Friday 1pm (social play for all); and (February-November) on Tuesdays at 11.15am (casual session for all abilities, bring your lunch). See the 2023 Programme for further details.
For the winter months the evening Bridge will sessions will have an earlier start time of 6.30pm
We have two annual tournaments, in April (Open 5A) and September (Intermediate/Junior 5B). See the Tournaments page for further details.
Beginner classes are held for those new to the game, and improver classes for those with a year or two of experience seeking to take their play to the next level.
