LOCATION, DIRECTIONS, PARKING, BLUE BADGE HOLDERS. 

Dean Close is a leading private school set in its own 50 acres of parkland on the A40, close to the centre of Cheltenham. All events will be held in Centenary Hall, an attractive and spacious modern building with excellent facilities. It is located at 63 Lansdown Road, Cheltenham GL51 6QH. 

The main car park is behind Turner House, 65 Lansdowne Rd. Parking is free and two minutes walk from the Centenary Hall. Blue Badge holders can park immediately in front of the Hall. 

Access is from Lansdown Road (the A40), about ten minutes from the M5 (exit 11) to the west. Coming from the east through Cheltenham, the school is on the left, just past the Police Station. Cheltenham Spa train station is 5-10 minutes walk.

“9 HIGH” PAIRS

All players with an NGS rating of 9 or below are welcome, especially those who have never previously experienced the buzz of a congress. The “9 High” is designed to be a relatively relaxed and friendly event. There will be a number of prizes, not just for the winners. Please contact Nicola Renshaw Tel: 07748 963301 if you would like help finding a partner. 

Players from Gloucestershire and Herefordshire will also have the opportunity to represent their home clubs for the splendid "Judy Ballinger Cup", this cup was kindly sponsored by David Ballinger in memory of his late wife. Players from these two counties are invited to specify their home club on the entry form. The winning club will be decided by the average score of their top three performing pairs – so any club can win, no matter how small. 

For all queries, please email  congress@cheltenhambridgeclub.com  If you are late arriving on the day please call Ro Kaye - Tel. No.  07843 082665
