| DupliCake Bridge Sessions |
|
Our first DupliCake session was a great success and enjoyed by all who attended. The next session is on Sunday 29th March at 2pm (the last Sunday of the month).
DupliCake is a social session (not NGS rated), with around 18 boards played and a midway break for cake and a chat.
A host will be available if you don’t have a partner. Please book via the website calendar so we can ensure at least four tables and, most importantly, enough cake! If you need help booking, please email Jon at Jon_brooks2@hotmail.com.

| Tuesday 14 April - Crawley Bridge Club at 19.30 on BBO |
|
Bookings are now open for this friendly match. Please click on the link to register (and let us know if you need a partner).
We are looking for anyone and everyone that would like to play as we try to put together
6 teams (that’s 6 teams of 4 people, 24 in total) so this is a great opportunity for many of our Club members to take part.
It doesn’t matter whether you are experienced at tournament play, or someone who plays at our Gentle Bridge sessions, or someone somewhere in between, perhaps a regular player but not in tournaments, as you will be matched against players of a similar level to you.
The matches will be free and they will be short – just 16 boards – so will probably take about 2-2 ½ hours. And all you need to do is to put yourselves forward and be online when the match starts.
