| INTRODUCING THE FRIENDLY ONLINE BRIDGE CLUB |
 |
FOBC IS HERE TO STAY
Formed by a group of like-minded bridge enthusiasts located in the North West of England during the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent 'lockdown', our members have continued to learn, play and enjoy their bridge every day since.
Now with the FOBC membership you too can continue to learn and play bridge whenever and wherever in the world you choose.
FOBC is definitely here to stay as it continues to grow at a much faster rate than the virus ever can and just like the virus itself: The FOBC bridge bug is very contageous: there are mutant formats and: it keeps on spreading and growing!!
So sit back in the comfort of your own surroundings, 'log on' and enjoy the experience.
