Our thanks to Peter,Ivor and Martin and all others who helped organise,score and direct.

THANK YOU

Thank you for supporting the Club. We have moved up four places to 35th as the most attended EBU affiliated Bridge Club

In Sussex only Horsham, Eastbourne and Worthing have higher numbers. They all have dedicated premises.

If we included the numbers attending Ian Macgregor's Club we would be much higher.

Patcham Community Centre is a major location for Bridge for everyone.
