We hold lessons at South Croydon Bridge Club which is part of South Croydon Sports Club and has excellent facilities including parking, a bar serving food and a dedicated bridge room.

Our aim is to open the wonderful world of bridge to new and experiences players alike.  We like to create a fun, friendly atmosphere and encourage discussion and debate so we can get the most out of our game.

We have English Bridge Union Approved courses for complete beginners with no knowledge of cards.  During the course we will guide you through all the important aspects of the game and then finally introduce duplicate play in supervised beginners sessions.  Beginner's courses start in September and there are five six week courses ending in May.  It is possible to join courses that have already started so please get in touch if you're interested.

There are also five six lesson intermediate courses on different aspects of the game following the same year.

You don't need a partner for any of our courses.
