Tournament Bridge - Fast, Fun and Sociable
Over the last decades 'Duplicate Bridge' - that is tournament bridge - has become the norm in club level play. It's fast, fun and sociable and you do not need to play for stakes. In
a duplicate tournament, you play as teams of two (NB. At all our games single players are welcome and will be paired up. We guarantee partners for all players at all our sessions). A set of deals circulates from table to table
and each pair plays each of the deals in turn. The object is to get a
better score from the same cards compared with other pairs at other
tables. If you get the best score on a deal you win, if not you
don't!. The pair that wins the most deals wins the tournament. Tournament bridge is very sociable, each pair plays against several other
pairs - and it tests your skill level.
This is club level bridge so you should at least be comfortable with the
basics. Advanced and intermediate players are welcome, but we also try
to provide a friendly and supportive environment if you are playing
your first tournaments. You can come with or without a partner - all
our games are 'hosted' so if you come single you will be paired up for
the game and there is always a 'house' player to make up the numbers if
needed. Do not be shy about coming - ring or email if you need more
advice. Some of the games below are 'gentle duplicates', some are full-pace suitable for experienced players. Click the links to find out more.
