About Us

In 1970, a group of teachers and bridge lovers would like to promote bridge as a kind of sports in Hong Kong schools. Hence, the first Rose Bowl 玫瑰盃 (Inter-School Bridge Competition) was organized in the summer of 1970. Mr. Anthony Ching was the Tournament Director and La Salle College was the first Rose Bowl Winner. 

In 1980s, students started to take up the administration work and the Joint-School Bridge Association (JSBA) was formed. Different secondary schools would send representatives to the JSBA committee and they elect the posts among themselves. Apart from the Rose Bowl, they organized different year-round events. 

After 1999, there were no successors in JSBA. Fortunately, the Rose Bowl continued with the support from some experienced teachers including Mr. Seneca Kwan, Mr. Samuel Chow, Mr. Billy Szeto and Mr. Ronald Hui. In 2005, 65 teams joined the Rose Bowl that summer and St. Paul's College was the winner. 

In order to promote contract bridge effectively among secondary schools, the Hong Kong Contract Bridge Association (HKCBA) has decided to set up the Secondary School Bridge League (SSBL) as its affiliated organization in 2005.  

Currently, the SSBL is mainly organizing the following events in a year: 

• Rose Bowl - Inter-school Bridge Competition

• Teacher-Student-Alumni Swiss Teams

• Several Teams / Pairs events for secondary school students

• Online competitions with students from foreign countries

• Bridge seminars for teachers and beginners' courses for secondary school students
