The Laurie Champniss Bridge Centre |
During the present Covid pandemic, the Centre is closed, and Burnham events are operating via BBO.
Burnham Bridge Club plays at the Laurie Champniss Bridge Centre on Monday evenings
The South Bucks Bridge Club holds daytime and evening lessons and bridge sessions for all standards of player every day from Monday - Friday. Lessons and Supervised Bridge are held several times each week.
All duplicate sessions use pre-dealt hands and Bridgemate table-top scoring devices. Current scores are shown on the large TV screen throughout; hand copies and printed results are available immediately at the end of the session.

Chiltern League |
The Chiltern League is affiliated to the English Bridge Union and runs events and leagues for clubs within a striking distance of Reading, and Burnham has a team-of-8 in the appropriate league. We're also involved with the annual Elimination Pairs and Summer Teams events.
Because of the greater distances involved [the Newbury club runs three teams-of-8], this is one respect in which playing matches online has distinct advantages over face-to-face bridge.
