| Who We Are |
Welcome to the Flathead Valley Bridge Center
The Flathead Valley Bridge Center is a friendly duplicate bridge club in Kalispell, Montana, serving players across the Flathead Valley of northwest Montana since 1951. Whether you're an experienced duplicate bridge player or just learning the game, you'll find a warm welcome and a seat at our table.
We draw members and visitors from across Flathead County and the communities around Flathead Lake and Glacier National Park — including Kalispell, Whitefish, Columbia Falls, Lakeside, Bigfork, and Polson. If you live in the Flathead Valley or are visiting Montana, we'd love to have you join us for a game of bridge.
Our weekly sessions offer something for everyone, from competitive ACBL duplicate bridge to relaxed, partner-optional games for newer players. We also offer bridge lessons and a free youth bridge program for players under 21 — because we believe bridge is a game for every generation.
Visitors are always welcome and we're glad to help you find a partner. New members are encouraged! To learn more, find a game time, or ask about bridge lessons in the Kalispell and Flathead Valley area, call us at 406-260-6832.

Near-Miss Big Game!
Congratulations to Meredith Sullivan & John Sullivan on a phenomenal 78.57% game Saturday! It was just shy of qualifying as an official "big game" for the ACBL Bridge Bulletin, which requires a minimum of 5 tables — we had 4. Still, a fantastic result. Well played!

FVBC Youth Players Featured in the NABC Daily Bulletin!
At this week's Youth NABC (North American Bridge Championships), players were asked what they like most about bridge. Two of our own Flathead Valley Bridge Center youth players made the July 17, 2026 Daily Bulletin — congratulations, Kessner and Kate!
“I like the challenge. I like the uniqueness of the game. A lot of people don't play it. I like that it's a partnership game.”
— Kessner Munday, 12, Kalispell MT
“I like seeing what cards I have and trying to figure out how I can play them – the strategy.”
— Kate Rogers, 12, Kalispell MT
Way to represent the Flathead Valley, Kessner and Kate! FVBC is proud to offer a free youth bridge program for players under 21 — ask us how your young bridge player can get started.
