The Club was founded in 1947 by Nora and Harold Toon. Both were keen bowls players so the Bridge Club has always used Blaby Bowling Club as its premises apart from the summer months when bowls takes precedence.
We play every Tuesday starting at 7:15pm prompt. Visitors are always welcome when partnering a member but a pair of visitors should contact us rather than turning up unannounced as they may be turned away if the venue is full or if it is an internal competition night for members only.

After their great start to the season in Division Two, Blaby A came back to earth with a disastrous loss 1 - 11 to a rejuvenated Ashby A team. 

Division Three newly promoted Blaby B lost 5 - 7 to relegated Golf, a good result in the circumstances.

You can see all the results, fixtures and tables in the menu on the left under Leicestershire League 2016-17.

The first LCBA competition of the new season, the Otto and Edith Bowl, attracted 18 pairs. This is a mixed pairs competition with the top two married couples being invited to represent Leicestershire in the final of the Midlands Flitch.

The highest placed Blaby pair were Keith Preston and Greta Cole who came fifth. Cynthia James, with Stephen Ashley (6th), Richard Smith, playing with Allison Nichols (7th), Dave Pollard and Jenny Hand (9th) were also above 50%. Well done to all.

It is with great sadness I have to tell you that Roger died in LOROS on 21st September. Roger had been a very popular member and team player for many years. Although Roger had been ill for some time this news came as a great shock.

Many people from Roger's family and circle of friends attended the funeral at Scraptoft Natural Burial Ground.

Twenty years ago, Blaby Bridge Club, as part of our 50th Anniversary Celebrations, stayed at Honiley Court Hotel in Warwickshire. This proved to be a great success. We have been holding weekends away each year ever since, for Club members and friends from other clubs.

Now to further celebrate our 70th Anniversary, Mary has arranged for us to return to Warwickshire, the Hilton Hotel Warwick from 3rd - 5th March 2017.

Blaby Bridge Club celebrations of its 70th anniversary got under way with a very successful Wine and Dine with Bridge evening. This was the first event organised by Mary Brown, our Events Organiser, for this important milestone for the Club.

Thirty of us, including Club members and friends of the Club, enjoyed a delicious buffet and drinks. Life members, Neil and Pat Beasley, who are our longest serving members of well over 50 years attended.

The matchpointed bridge event was won by John and Doreen Arnold, East/West, and joint winners North/South, Linda Burdett and Margaret Rushton & Paul and Linda Loveday. You can see full scores under Results.
