Learn or Improve Your Bridge

If you want to learn bridge, information about classes and teachers is available through the EBU website. Classes usually start in September and are delivered face to face or online.

If you've already got some bridge experience and want to play and improve your game in a friendly environment, please note our 'gentle' bridge session on a Thursday from 10.30 to 12.30 might be ideal. This is designed to support players move from lessons into more competitive bridge as well as for members to have a shorter, enjoyable game.

Please come along and support everyone to become a better bridge player in a fun, social environment - you can come along to a session without booking or having a partner as we have a host system in place and you don't have to attend every week (though we'd love it if you did!).

We have also started a Hand of the Week feature on the website aimed at those wanting to improve their bridge game.

Welcome to Stannington Bridge Club

WELCOME TO STANNINGTON BRIDGE CLUB

Stannington BC was launched in August 2023 as a new EBU affiliated bridge club. We combined the previous Newcastle and Cramlington bridge clubs into one organisation.

We offer three regular games, all operating under EBU rules and awarding master points. On Wednesday evenings we play an online game on BBO. On Thursday mornings at Stannington Village Hall we have a gentle bridge session for members and improvers and provide hosts as partners. On Friday evenings we play face to face at the hall too when we hold our main club competitions. We have a monthly special event including expert talks, cheese and wine evenings and, of course, our legendary Christmas Party!

We provide free refreshments and welcome visitors and players of all abilities to our friendly club.

If you are looking for a partner please contact Colin Mitchell on 07919 354477 or by email Colin.mitchell01@btinternet.com.

The final 2024/25 NEBA event is the Teams event to be held at Stannington on Saturday 26th July at 2.00. Details and entry forms are being finalised.
