The Buckland Bridge Club (Archive Information)

Welcome to the Buckland (Surrey) Bridge Club. We are a small, friendly club, designed originally for novices but now catering for more experienced players as well.

We meet on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons in the Buckland Reading Room (Village Hall), pictured here. It is in the Old Road 60 yards from the Buckland village shop. We play duplicate bridge sessions of 21 boards. The table money is £3.00, for members and visitors. Please arrive by 2.00pm on both days for play to start at 2.15pm.

We welcome visitors, pairs or single players, but as the club is limited to a maximum of 12 tables, there is the possibility that we cannot accommodate everyone who wishes to play.

Visitors need to be aware of the local regulations that operate at the club. Please check under the Information menu on this page.
