At Hartford, near Northwich in Cheshire, we play duplicate bridge in a friendly but competitive way. We have evening and afternoon sessions run by TDs whose objective is to help everyone to have an enjoyable time amongst good company. We welcome all ages having members with ages ranging from 12 to over 90 and we can offer teaching, through Tony Pickering, to those who are not yet ready to join in a full duplicate session. 

The clubhouse has a private, lit car park with disabled parking and provides refreshments with a bar and hot/cold soft drinks. 

By prior arrangement we can usually arrange a partner and welcome visitors whether passing or local.

The next fun teams event being run by the Cheshire Bridge Network will be on Sunday 31st October at the Cuddington Village Hall, Norley Road, Cuddington starting at 12 for 12.30.

The cost will be £10 per person including an excellent buffet style lunch and a glass of wine.

If you would like to form a team of 4 please let me or Anne Davies know along with the name for your team.

If you know anyone who would like to find out whether they would like to learn how to play bridge, The Cheshire Bridge Network is organising a 10 week taster course starting in October. It will be run by an EBU qualified teacher and will be held in the Kingsley area. The cost will be £5 per session but the first 4 will be free so as to encourage people to give it a go.

This is not comprehensive training which takes rather longer than 10 weeks but is designed to encourage new players to find out whether they like the game without the costs of a full adult education college fee.  

If you know of anyone who would like to take part please let me know - we need to have a viable number to take up the offer in order to proceed.

The member information which you kindly supplied has now been registered with the EBU and individual membership numbers allocated. The results for the bridge sessions from April to date have been given to the EBU who will be crediting local points as earned in each session. The EBU have sent out the next English Bridge magazine to all Hartford members, your membership number should be shown on the paperwork associated with that issue but if this has not occured please give me a ring.
