This Monday, May 29, BCoH will be celebrating Memorial Day with the traditional Hot Diggity Dog Day!

Hot Dogs will be served at 11:00 am and the game starts at 11:55 am.

Please bring your favorite sides and desserts to share.

New F2F and Online classes are starting on June 17!

Both classes will be taught on Saturdays.  The F2F class will be taught at the Club by Susan Banks-Johnson and Andy Remson.  Sam Khayatt will teach online.

If you would like to learn to play bridge for the first time,
bone up on your basics and have the opportunity to ask questions in a safe environment.
or you have friends that are interested in learning bridge, these classes are for you!

Both classes will be using Audrey Grant teaching materials with the same lesson presented F2F and online each week.  You will have access to three excellent teachers.

To sign up, please contact Susan Banks-Johnson or Sam Khayatt.

Effective Monday, May 15, 2023, the clubs that offer the Choose Houston online BBO games announced that they are suspending the WEEKDAY MORNING games.  

We are thankful that our virtual club games were available during the early years of the pandemic serving Houstonians by keeping us “virtually together” and are grateful for all those who have played with us.

We will continue to offer the 1^st & 3^rd Monday night Mentor-Mentee online games, as well as the Tuesday night and Thursday night online Open games.  Kudos to the BCoH directors who direct these games.

If you seek a morning online game, we suggest those hosted by ACBL and other Virtual Online Clubs:  many levels of games as well as many time slots are available on BBO.  ACBL games are open to any player, however, you may have to request a "visitor's pass" for other online club games prior to the day of the game.

The mission of the Bridge Club of Houston:

To welcome players of all skill levels to join us in fun and fair duplicate games with opportunities for

learning, mentoring, recognition, and social engagement at our club and online.
