| ROYSTON BRIDGE CLUB - Competitive yet Friendly |
 Our ♣ sparkles like a ♦, has a big ♥ and ♠♠♠ of bonhomie, boosted by beverage, biscuits, and banter before bridge begins.
Sessions held every Thursday at 7.00pm at the Coombes Community Centre, Burns Road, Royston.
The club has electronic scoring and computer-dealt hands so results and deals are available straight away.
Visitors are always welcome but need to come with a partner. If you are new to the area, use Find a Partner (Public) and the club will make every effort to provide a suitable partner for you.

| Charity Challenge SIMS 12th March |
Here’s an early reminder that the next SIMS event at the club will be the ECATS Charity Challenge on Thursday 12th March, with profits being divided equally between the two charities Mind and Macmillan Cancer Support.
Table money for the two annual ECATS SIMS events at Royston has remained fixed at £5 for many years now. However, the club has become increasingly aware that the amount donated to charity for such events has been steadily eroded by inflation and has now become unacceptably low.
To correct this situation, starting with this first ECATS SIMS event of 2026 (the “Charity Challenge”), the club will increase table money to £7, set at a realistic level to provide a significant donation to charity after the club has deducted unavoidable expenses.
I trust that members understand the need for this occasional increase in table money and hope that you continue to support and enjoy these ECATS SIMS events.
