As part of our publicity campaign, MHBC is now promoted on many local social media pages as the place to go if you need to learn bridge. Many thanks to Graham Logan for pushing this.

Also, thanks to our radio guru Peter Oppenheimer, who once again will be doing a radio interview about our club and the training offers. This is a recorded interview, so I don't have dates yet - but will let you know soon!

We are an active friendly bridge club serving Market Harborough and its surrounding area. We meet to play duplicate bridge in the Baptist Church's New Horizons Hall, Manor Walk, Market Harborough on Monday and Thursday evenings between 6.50 pm and 10 pm.

Members pay a small annual subscription of £20, visitors are always welcome. 

If you play bridge and would like to have a trial game, but don't have a partner, please contact the Secretary on  secretary@mhbridge.com who will try to find you an appropriate partner.

Visiting pairs should also contact the Secretary, who will advise and if appropriate book them in. Or they can just turn up on a Thursday evening.

Market Harborough Bridge Club is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. Registered charity no 1206206.

We run lessons for new players on Wednesday evenings in Market Harborough. The next course series begins in January 2026. Click here for more information

On Monday evenings we aim to play 24 boards. We operate a booking system for members up to a week ahead via this website. A member can book for a non-member to partner them. Visitors welcome, please contact us at enquiries@mhbridge.com

On the first week of each month results count towards our handicap competition for the Jean Pringle Trophy. And on the third Monday results count towards the "scratch" club championship for the Bill Carter Trophy. All results are submitted to the EBU for the National Grading Scheme and award of Masterpoints.

Table money is £5 for members, £6 for non-members.

On Thursday evenings we have a more relaxed session, playing no more than 21 boards. No booking is required - just turn up and play. As for Mondays, all results are submitted to the EBU for the National Grading Scheme and award of Masterpoints.

Those needing a partner can use the automated system on this website. But if you prefer the human touch, Stella Joyce is happy to help. Call her on 07710 581133.

Table money is £5 for members, £6 for non-members.

For those wanting a more relaxed session of duplicate bridge, we recommend the “Breakaway Bridge Club”, which meets on a Wednesday morning at 9.50 a.m. in the same location as MHBC. They typically play 18 boards (duplicate bridge), in a relaxed atmosphere. This is an independent group (non-EBU). There is no membership fee, with table money of £4 per person.  Players need to come with a partner. Please contact Stella Joyce (stellafjoyce@gmail.com) for more information.
