Sarum Bridge club meets in the Cricket Club on the Wilton Road in Salisbury three times a week. We are affiliated to the EBU and the Wiltshire Contract Bridge Association and our doors are always open to new members and visitors.

Our premises are disabled friendly (there is a lift to the first floor) and there is a bar where refreshments can be ordered.

There is a large, free car park.      Find our Venue

Monday and Wednesday evenings are competitive evenings and play starts promptly at 19.00. Members are asked to be at the club by 18.45.
On Thursday we hold a social session, starting at 15.00 with members being asked to arrive by 14.45. 

Table fees are £3.00 for members and £4.00 for visitors.
The annual membership fee is £10.00

We run a stewarding system at all sessions so a game is guaranteed.

We at Sarum are excited to be announcing the reopening of the club on the 6th September. There will be some Covid precautions put in place which I would ask you to read and abide by for the safety of all. 

Happy playing!

For the foreseeable future the following rules have been put in place by the Committee of Sarum Bridge Club. 

1. We would hope that all our members and visitors have been double [Covid] vaccinated or have had a negative lateral flow or PCR test shortly before attending a bridge session.

2.  Members are requested not to attend any session if they are displaying any signs of Covid infection. 

3.  Members will respect social distancing on entering and leaving the building and on moving between tables. Members should bear in mind that they may also be mixing with members of the Cricket club.

4. Members will be required to santitize their hands on entering the bridge room and on joining each new table. 

5. As far as possible north/south will remain seated. East/west will move with their bidding boxes. 

6. Tables will be used without cloths and will be sanitised at the beginning and end of the evening. 

7. The wearing of masks is an individual decision, but members are free to use them if they prefer.

Members who choose to attend a bridge session must do so at their own risk and neither the Club nor its Committee accept any responsibility for any consequences of catching the virus. 

Congratulations to Team Hands
