Framlingham BC is a small friendly and relaxed Duplicate Bridge Club established in 1977. The club is affiliated to the Suffolk Contract Bridge Association (SCBA) and to the English Bridge Union (EBU) and membership of the club automatically enrolls you as a member of the two higher parent organisations. The annual club membership of £5.00 covers membership of the other two. Please see 'Information' in the menu panel for further details times etc.
Monday afternoons. This session is intended for experienced players but don't let the word 'experienced' put you off. The average standard of Monday players is NGS 7or 8 and our two highest rated players are a modest NGS 10. So long as you can play a solid no frills game you'll be winning trophies here in no time.
Wednesday afternoons This is a duplicate session with fewer (usually 18) boards played than on Monday afternoons. EBU master points are not awarded because we take a more relaxed view of the laws of the game and there is a less competitive atmosphere in order to help and encourage less experienced players who wish to improve or to provide a gentle reintroduction to the game for those who may not have played for a while. It's also there for members who seek no more than an social afternoon of bridge. There is no obligation to move up to play on Mondays although we hope this will happen naturally as Wednesday players become more experienced. Some Monday players also play on Wednesdays but do so in the relaxed ethos of the session. We do not at present offer teaching at any level so you must be able to play at least a basic game in order to take part. Feel free to drop in on your own to watch a bit of play and get a feel for the club, existing club members have done just that before deciding to join us.
All visitors are welcome but you will need to come with a partner or please contact Richard Goble on 07765910637 or Glyn Button 01728 831647 and they will try to find you a partner via the Club's WhatsApp group because we almost always have a club member who is in need of one.

Monday Mafiosos |
 The gangland turf wars continue unabated and this week Simon and Richard are back having muscled out Carolyn and Shirley and it won't be their be their turn again next Monday because Carolyn won't be playing. This leaves the door open again for this week's two hitmen unless the rest of us can get our act together and say; 'Enough, we demand change! Up with this revolving weekly dictatorship we shall no longer put! A congratulatory shout out to Alex and Warren who came within a fraction of achieving it today

Wednesday Wizards |
 Congratulations to the broadly smiling Stanley and a slightly out of focus Stuart on being first across the Wednesday finishing line and providing the home page with a change of scenery. Not exactly new faces as they are no strangers to the celebrity and fame that comes with appearing here but they have breached what was threatening to become the private fiefdom of a couple of overachieving pairs. More kudos to Alex and Warren who were denied the ultimate prize for the second time in three days but they still look pretty good compared with to the rest of the field who crossed the line long after the crowd had lost interest and gone home.
