♠ Monday Evening Duplicate (7.30pm)

♠ Wednesday Evening Duplicate (7.30pm)

(Club Night )

♠ Thursday Evenings - Swiss Pairs (7.30pm)  

Swiss Pairs is suitable for all standards of play as after the first round pairs are matched against players of a similar standard. It's great fun and a good way for less experienced players to have the chance to play with more expert people and gain confidence.
