From February 2026 the Korineum Monday Bridge Club (KMBC) is introducing a new feature in that on the first Monday of each month (starting Monday 2^nd Feb 26) beginners and learners will be invited to join the weekly duplicate bridge tournaments. This is designed to expose participants to a more testing bridge environment. More time and less boards will be available to assist those new to duplicate bridge.

Welcome to our new web site. Islands Bridge is based in the Turkish Republic of North Cyprus (TRNC) and currently supports a regular Monday afternoon Face to Face Duplicate bridge session at the Korineum Golf & Beach Resort - near Girne/Kyrenia plus two free BBO sessions held on Friday and Saturday at 13:00 Cyprus time. From 19 March 2025 we are also running weekly Chicago bridge sessions on Wednesday in Alsancak. Bridge was first started in Girne in the early 2000's as Chicago bridge and was originally played at the Sele and Polar Restaurants. Islandsbc was established in 2020 with the help of Ellen MacArthur from Oregon USA and Stephen Williamson from the Philippines during the pandemic and has over 90 members from across the globe playing on a regular basis. Visitors to the TRNC are very welcome to join the Monday sessions and may apply to join the online BBO club.

Started many, many years ago the Wednesday Bridge Club was the first Club to start in the Girne area. Sadly there are none of the original group still playing.

We still play a Chicago movement whereby players meet other players after each table change; with a break about half way for a drink and biscuits/cake and more importantly to socialise with other players.

New players are always welcome to watch/play and receive guidance from our members in a friendly relaxed atmosphere.

We play at our villa - Muğla Bağdaş Caddesi, Alsancak and ask players to arrive by 13:15 and play starts at 13:30. All for an inclusive charge of 100TL and the overall winner receiving a prize of 100TL.
