At the Carlton, we welcome all levels of bridge player. Visitors are also welcome to join all of our tournaments and we will try to find a partner if required. Our custom built, fully accessible bridge centre provides excellent playing and teaching facilities. Tournaments are scored using interactive technology and results are displayed promptly. The catering team, Westmains Catering, provide a range of soups, sandwiches and amazing baked goods as well as teas, coffees, soft drinks and a selection of beers, wines and spirits.

All BBO tournaments have a Partnership Desk. If you register there, you have a good chance of getting a game either with somebody else looking for a partner or as a sub (a free game).
To take part in any of these tournaments you need to join BBO and register your username at online@carltonbridge.co.uk.
If you need help joining a tournament, contact the TD for your tournament via BBO and they will be glad to assist you.
