| Representing the County |
County Selections for A and B Team in 2022 are now on the website under County Matches > Matches 2022
Representing the County - expression of interest
We are in the process of Selections for County Matches this year which will all be held on RealBridge so you don't have to travel to represent the county.
Playing bridge for Lancashire is very enjoyable - particualrly:
- It enables you to be part of a team from all areas of Lancashire;
- You meet players from other counties;
- Playing against other county players improves your game
There are opportunities at various levels and if you would like to be considered for selection (and have not played previously), please Email either JeffSmith at jasmith@nildram.co.uk or John Brearley at jmbrearley1611@outlook.com.
