About our Website
This site aims to provide both members and visitors with all the key information on what's happening and what's planned within the club.
There is bridge played at the Ascot club every Monday afternoon and Tuesday evening - except on bank holidays and the week between Christmas and New Year. Whilst the Monday afternoon section of the club plays exclusively duplicate pairs bridge, the Tuesday evening section includes teams of four evenings several times every year.

| Resumption of Face-to-Face Bridge |
Ascot Bridge Club will return to the Church Hall on Monday afternoons, commencing Monday 6th September 1-15pm - providing it remains safe to do so. Some changes in the playing conditions will be necessary but this is a welcome return to normality.
Tuesday evenings will remain online using RealBridge for the remainder of 2021, thus providing an alternative for players not wishing to return to the club immediately.
Wednesday Supervised Play sessions will restart at the Church Hall from 1st September, with the usual 1st and last Wednesdays in the month. Gentle Duplicate will remain online using RealBridge - these are hosted on 2nd Wednesday of the month (plus the middle Wednesday when there are 5 in the month).

| Addis Page |
We are saddened to learn of the death of Addis Page. A valued servant to Ascot Bridge Club, a partner to Dave Calcutt for over 15 years, his enthusiasm for the game was undiminished and his legacy was his willingness to try and get others involved. A wonderful tribute can be found on the Burnham Bridge Club website (by clicking this panel).
