Bridge develops your mental ability and helps the brain to stay young and healthy. Research on bridge players verses non players aged 55 to 91 has indicated that players outperformed non players in measures of working memory and reasoning.

Table money is £3.00 for a full evenings entertainment!

If you are looking for a partner contact Bob Clark on 07840970469 and he will try his best to find one.

Why Bridge?

Bridge can be a lifelong pursuit. It takes only rudimentary knowledge to begin playing and enjoying bridge, but as any player will tell you, this is not a game for those who demand instant gratification.

Bridge will never bore you.  The game can be exciting, challenging, frustrating and humbling, but it will never be boring.

Bridge stimulates the brain.  Bridge is one of the best ways to practice the "use it or lose it" advice for maintaining mental sharpness in older age.

Bridge exercises both sides of your brain. Bridge is one of the few games that stimulates both the left and right sides of your brain.

Bridge can improve your physical health.  Research has shown that a game of bridge can even boost your immune system.

Bridge is social. A game of bridge involves communication and cooperation with your partner and interaction with your opponents.

Bridge is a bargain.  All you need for a bridge game is a deck of cards and three other people.

Bridge is fun.  Of all the reasons to learn the game, the most important is that it's just fun to play.

That's what keeps people coming back to the bridge table, and it's why bridge will always be the world's most popular card game.

"If I had my way, I would have children taught bridge as a matter of course, just as they are taught dancing.
In the end, it will be more useful to them. You can play bridge as long as you can sit up at a table and tell one card from another.
In fact, when all else fails -- sport, love, ambition -- bridge remains a solace and an entertainment."

  -- W. Somerset Maugham
