Your County bridge organisation, Merseyside & Cheshire BA, is supporting an initiative on on-line bridge.  The idea is to try to gradually build a bridge-playing community across the County, giving players the chance to practice their skills, and get to know new people at different clubs. It also might serve to rationalise some of the smaller and barely viable on-line sessions which some clubs run now, as sessions run far better with more tables.

How does it work?

Sessions are hosted by Warrington Bridge Club, and other clubs who join in. Anyone who's a member of a bridge club within Merseyside and Cheshire can play without any additional subscription, and just pay for the sessions they play. At Warrington Bridge Club, we charge every three months in arrears, so all we need for anyone who plays is an email address so we can bill them. To make it even more attractive, we offer the first three sessions for any player free of charge, so you can try it for free, and if you don't like it, it's costs you nothing.

The Warrington-hosted sessions use the RealBridge platform, which is deservedly becoming one of the most popular on-line bridge platform in UK, offering video and sound, so that playing is as near as it can be to face to face bridge. It doesn’t require any software to be downloaded: it runs directly on your browser, on eg an iPad, laptop, or desktop PC.

At present Warrington run two sessions per week:

• a "casual" or "relaxed" duplicate session on a Tuesday evening, without Master Points or NGS gradings, starting at 7pm. It is generally only about 21 boards, and we're finished by 915pm or even earlier. The charge is only £1 per person per session. You don't need a pre-arranged partner, though it works better if you have one. We can provide a partner for anyone on their own.
• a more formal duplicate session on a Friday evening, where the results are posted to the EBU, and Master Points and NGS gradings are awarded. It starts at 715pm, and usually will be 24 boards, finishing around 10pm. The charge is £3 per person per session. You do need a pre-arranged partner.

We operate a dedicated WhatsApp group for people to find a partner if they don't have one.

It's very easy to join a session: you just locate the panel headed County On-Line Bridge on this homepage, and click on the link for the date. We ask you log in at least 10 minutes before the session start time, so we know how many tables, and can organise the movement etc.

If you’d like to give it a try, and you’re not sure how, please contact Jim Steele on 04748 312456, who will be very happy to provide any further information or help that anyone might need.

You will be made very welcome.

OUR NEW SEASON OF 2026/27 COURSES (BEGINNERS, IMPROVERS, AND INTERMEDIATES) WILL START ON 10 SEPTEMBER 2026.  

....and if learning face-to face doesn't work for you, here's a great resource, totally free, for learning bridge on line, designed for people new to the game: 

It’s a series of You Tube videos created by expert bridge player and teacher John Stell. Start off by clicking  HERE , which will explain how to access the 52 videos.

John has now also added a short course on how to play two over one: HERE
Many people play online, and this system is very popular on sites such as BBO, INTO Bridge and RealBridge.
This is a useful resource for club members to brush up on various topics that maybe they don't have a full grasp of. The course would normally cost over £260 - but here it’s free, with no strings attached. The only thing John asks is if you like it, you spread the word, and subscribe to his YouTube channel.  

Another great option for learning on-line is available from Jack Stocken at Yorkshire Bridge

You can even start for free! You can watch Jack's series of 9 introductory lessons; Click  HERE

And if you're already a bridge player, whether or not you'd like to attend classes, you will be made most welcome at any of Warrington Bridge Club playing sessions. We run both face to face and on-line bridge sessions, mostly Duplicate Pairs. You can always find up-to-date details; click here for our website calendar.
