WE WELCOME PLAYERS AND STUDENTS FROM GERRARDS CROSS, AMERSHAM, CHALFONT ST PETER, AND BEACONSFIELD AS WELL AS FROM ALL OVER BUCKINGHAMSHIRE, BERKSHIRE AND MIDDLESEX

Sadly we have decided to follow both the EBU and Government advice and close our bridge sessions until further notice.  We will let you know when things change. Please keep yourselves safe.

Sometimes I wonder what happened to the people who asked me for directions .

PARKING ON OUR MONDAY SESSION

To give us extra parking on a Monday, we have once again rented the Scout Car Park.  This can be reached by going into the entrance (over the little bridge) and turning right towards the Tennis Club.  The Scouts' building is the second building along and the gates to the car park will be open.  PLEASE, IF YOU ARE FIT AND ABLE, USE THIS SPACE on a Monday to allow others who visit the centre for other classes, to park their cars (some are elderley and disabled).  Your help would be greatly appreciated.

PARKING ON OUR THURSDAY SESSION

Unfortunately we are unable to rent the Scout Car Park on a Thursday.  There are a few extra spaces available if you go down the lane towards the Scout Building and through the gate.  You can then park on the right hand side opposite the green.  There is also the Pay and Display in the village, just a short walk through the play area.
