Welcome to Castle Morpeth Bridge Club (CMBC). We are an EBU affiliated club with around 80 members and regular visitors. We play on Tuesday evenings with both a Face to Face (F2F) and an Online session running roughly in parallel with the same boards. The Online session uses the Bridge Base Online software (BBO) easily downloadable to any connected device. In any evening we will have an average of around 14 tables in play (both F2F and BBO).

Congratulations to the various trophy winners of the 2024-5 season, a run down of which can be found in the 'Rolls of Honour & Photo's' documents within the green buttons on the left. (Or you can click here). Winners will receive a presentation of their trophies in due course.
