| Welcome... |
... to the West Sussex Bridge Club web site. The Club meets for duplicate pairs each Monday and Tuesday evening and Thursday afternoons (see Calendar). There is also a Gentle Supervised Bridge Session for novices on Wednesday evenings and a Basic Bridge (Level 2) session on Thursday evenings. Many Sussex and EBU events (e.g. simultaneous pairs) are also held here. The Club is situated on the west side of Haywards Heath in Mid Sussex, at Lamb House within the Hurst Place Development (see "How to find us" in the "Information" section).
There are games to suit all levels of experience. Our aim is ensure a welcoming and friendly atmosphere at all times and across all sessions.

| Ladies and Men’s Pairs competition |
Don't forget to enter the Ladies and Men’s Pairs on Tuesday 29 October. If we get sufficient entries it would be good to run this as 2 separate events with both sections playing the same boards, otherwise it will have to be just one section with a prize for the best Men’s and Ladies pairs. Prizes will be presented at the end.

| WSBC Bournemouth Bridge Holiday 2019 |
51 people attended the bridge holiday and with 3 non bridge players we had exactly 12 tables. WSBC was delighted to welcome 12 players from the Meridian club, and 2 from Horsham.
Once again the Hotel Miramar looked after us extremely well and everyone enjoyed the delicious food and great service. Although the weather was a bit wet and dreary, it was still possible to enjoy a bracing walk along the beach or through the town and it's beautiful gardens.
 
There were 5 sessions of bridge superbly directed by Graham & Berry Hedley and 2 excellent morning seminars given by Graham and Neil Watts. The hotel is provisionally booked for 2020 from Feb 9th - 12th and we hope as many people will join us again in what is becoming a very convivial get together of bridge players.
