Welcome to Branford-Madison Bridge Club
Branford Bridge Club

Branford Bridge Club is open for "live" (Face-to-Face) play. The "Open" game is held on Monday at 12:00 NOON, and the "299'er" game is held on Friday at 12:30 PM at the Branford Community House, 46 Church Street, Branford.  Entry fee for games is $8.00 per person. 

“NEWCOMERS” – Anyone with fewer than 20 masterpoints – there is a new section in Branford for you on Fridays at 12:30. In a “Newcomer” game players can ask a director for assistance in bidding and play. Play is slower, there are fewer boards in play, and it is a good place to improve your game, win masterpoints and gain experience.

For information or questions contact Don Brueggemann at 203-425-6600, email dcb29director@gmail.com.
