| Help Shape the Future of Bridge in Dorset |
The Dorset County Bridge Association is looking for an enthusiastic new Chair and other Committee members to help support and develop Bridge across the county.
The DCBA Committee plays a vital role in organising events, promoting the game, supporting clubs, and ensuring that Bridge continues to thrive in Dorset. More volunteers are needed, particularly those who can bring fresh ideas and a passion for growing participation.
Chair and Membership Secretary Needed
You do not need previous committee experience to take on these roles. Enthusiasm, organisation, and a willingness to work with others are far more important. Support will be available from existing committee members and from national Bridge development resources.
Why Join the Committee?
- Help shape the future of bridge in Dorset.
- Support local clubs and players.
- Contribute new ideas and perspectives.
- Meet and work with fellow bridge enthusiasts.
- Make a positive difference to the growth of the game.
The Committee benefits from a range of skills and experiences, and we welcome interest from members of all ages and backgrounds.
If you would like to find out more about joining the Committee, or would like an informal conversation about the roles, please contact Alan Wilson.
Together, we can ensure that Bridge in Dorset continues to flourish for current and future generations.
