It’s with great pleasure that I can announce that the
East Grinstead Basic Bridge Pairs
is returning to East Grinstead after a gap of over 10 years!
We have a new venue and catering and a new director but can guarantee the same friendly atmosphere! As has been the case previously, this competition is aimed primarily at players who have learned more recently. But those who have played for longer are still welcome as this provides the newer players with a variety of levels of play. As usual, apart from prizes for the overall winners, there will also be prizes for less-experienced players. Best Behaviour at Bridge will apply, helping to create the usual atmosphere.
You can enter online or download the entry form now.
Helen Kent, Organiser

| Crawley BC's 50th Anniversary! |
 Congratulations to Crawley BC who celebrated their 50th Anniversary recently with a enjoyable evening of bridge, cakes and Prosecco! One of the North/South winners was founder member Tad Jasco (pictured) who still plays every week.
Crawley were one of the first Sussex clubs to restart face-to-face bridge after the pandemic. Numbers are now above pre-pandemic levels but Crawley still have room to welcome new members and guests.
