ABOUT THE CLUB

We are an active friendly bridge club serving Market Harborough and its surrounding area. We play duplicate bridge in the New Horizons Hall, Coventry Road.(Baptist Church Hall), Market Harborough on various afternoons/evenings and run lessons and improver sessions at the Methodist Church on Wednesdays. See below for details.
Members pay a small annual subscription of £20, visitors are always welcome. 

If you are a visitor looking for a game and have a partner, you can turn up for a Thursday or Friday session, or contact  secretary@mhbridge.com for other sessions

If you are a bridge player without a partner, either come along on Friday afternoons, or for other sessions contact  secretary@mhbridge.com who will try to find you an appropriate partner.

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

ABOUT THE CLUB
MONDAY EVENINGS

On Monday evenings usually play a 24-board duplicate session. Players need to book on this website, up to a week ahead. 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.

WEDNESDAY MORNINGS

For those wanting a more relaxed session of duplicate bridge, we recommend the “Breakaway Bridge Club”, which now meets on a WEDNESDAY morning at 9.45am (for a 10am start). in the Baptist Church Market Harborough.
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 don't need to come with a partner, they will try to find one for you on the day.

They also have a WhatsApp Group called "Wednesday Bridge" for finding partners. Please contact Stella Joyce (stellafjoyce@gmail.com) for more information.

 

WEDNESDAY EVENING IMPROVERS WOSKHOPS
