Perth Bridge Club were presented with the Fair City Cup at the end of a really enjoyable evening of Bridge.

Drumhar Bridge Club would like to thank all our Bridge friends for coming along to play in the third year of this annual event.  Next year Muirend will host the competition.

A very special huge thanks to our TD and play organisers for the evening - Anne Amos, Willie Young and Richard Benstead.  An excellent job which enabled the smooth running of the competition.

Special mention to three new members of the Perth Team who have only recently completed Bridge Lessons at our club. Well done to Mike, Mark and Elaine.

In addition to the Bridge trophy Sue Gordon of Perth Bridge Club was also announced as the Star Baker of the night for her lemon drizzle cake.  Many of those taking part mentioned the cake and refreshments as the highlight of their evening.

Individual team scores can be seen in the results section.

Perth Bridge Club will be running a Beginners Bridge course starting in September 2025.

The course will start on Monday 15 September, and will consist of 2 terms of 10 lessons each with additional practice sessions after each block of 4 lessons.   

Each session will start at 6.45pm, and will finish by 9.30 pm (and will include a coffee break). The course will be based on the SBU 20 Week Course.

Further information about the SBU course can be found at SBU Approved 20 Lesson Course - Scottish Bridge Union (SBU) 

A lot of the development of this course was done by members of Perth Bridge Club.

The cost of the Course is £100 per term (fee waived for people in full-time education). The price includes a year's membership of both Perth Bridge Club and the Scottish Bridge Union, though additional registration processes would have to be followed to trigger this. The current price of these is £32 for the 2024/25 year.

If you wish to register your interest in the Lessons for 2025/26, please contact perthbridgeclub@gmail.com   Or if you have any questions, please do contact us at the same address.

Please pass this information on to anyone whom you think may be interested

Playing sessions at King Street

Tuesday evening face-to-face playing sessions at King Street take place each week starting at 6:45pm. This is the main playing session of the week, and more than 24 boards may well be played.  

The club also runs a ‘Relaxed Pairs’ session at the club which is on Wednesdays starting at 6:45pm. This session always has a Host. This session is slower, chattier, and less competitive than the Tuesday Pairs play sessions. Fewer boards will normally be played. 

The payment of table fees is now cashless via card only.  

A Discuss & Play group has been meeting on Monday afternoons through the winter, but is now suspended for the summer - see Discuss & Play Group link for further details.

The club usually runs Beginners Lessons each winter. See above for the 2025/26 dates. Please see the Bridge Classes page for more information.

The Drumhar Bridge Club plays in the King Street building on Monday evenings from September - April.

The Perthshire Bridge League plays during the winter. Please see their website at Perthshire Bridge League, Perth (bridgewebs.com) for further details.

For a number of years, it has been the SBU policy that master points for simultaneous pairs events awards are only issued centrally, and individual clubs do NOT award the club points in addition. The SBU considered this to be a double award for the same event.

However, this has always caused some issues in that some clubs submit the points for processing anyway. This causes additional work either trapping the file before load or reversing it after inadvertently loading it.

It has now come to our attention that all the other Home Unions (EBU, WBU, NIBU, CBAI) allow clubs to award normal club points for their heat of simultaneous pairs events in addition to the points awarded centrally.  

We have therefore decided that from 1st January 2025, for simultaneous pairs events, clubs may submit their points for award if they wish. i.e. The SBU will now follow the same rules as the other Home Unions.
