The club meets on Wednesdays and Fridays for a 7:15 start at Grattons Indoor Bowls Club (off Grattons Drive in Three Bridges) to play duplicate pairs bridge in a friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Occasionally, we have a teams or individual event. On Monday evenings, we have an online BBO relaxed duplicate pairs session for less-experienced players.
The club is keen to encourage you to play the great game of bridge. We run teaching courses for beginners and improvers. Further information can be found on the Teaching page.

There were 14 mixed pairs in the hotly contested Valentine Pairs! Although the highest scoring pair was Gill and Judith, the winning mixed pair was George and Helen, with the runners-up Claire and Dave.

| 2025 Christmas Party |
A record 67 members attended the Xmas Party this year.
We are indebted to Dave Lilly and his team at Haskins for hosting the event and laying on a sumptuous buffet for us.
One of the highlights was wishing Betty 'Happy Birthday' as she passes another milepost on her way to doing The Ton. Helen presented the Birthday Girl with a card and flowers.
Thanks to the splendid generosity of our members, CBC has made a donation of £1,230 to St Catherine's Hospice.
