We are introducing a new No Fear session to take place on Wednesday evenings. The first session will take place on Wednesday 7^th August starting at 7pm.

The session is aimed at inexperienced players and we hope that players attending beginner’s classes and the assisted play sessions will be encouraged to take the next step in their bridge journey and try this session.

Players already attending other bridge sessions are welcome to attend but be aware the session is not intended for the more experienced partnerships. We would like to encourage stronger players to mentor less experienced players. Therefore more experienced players are welcome to play at this new session if they are partnering a weaker player.

Only simple systems will be allowed and the number of boards played will be limited to between 15 and 18. Don’t worry if you are unfamiliar with bridgemates or bridge movements. The person leading the session will provide any assistance that you require.

Please give these new sessions your support.

The Waddington Cup is a YCBA competition for the top bridge players throughout Yorkshire. It's a competition for teams of four with qualifying heats.

Clubs have differing qualifying criteria. We use the Club's Internal League as the qualifying event with the winners of the scratch competition representing York Bridge Club. 

The Waddington Cup was competed for on Sunday 7th July. Keith Joules, Barney Nisbet, Frank Dixon and Paul Brereton represented York. In a tough field of 13 teams from Club's around the county, they put in a strong second set to finish well in third place. Only Leeds and Sheffield finished above them. Very well done to the York team.

Saturday night social bridge is now part of the Club’s ongoing session calendar.  Social bridge is offered on the second Saturday of each month, starting at 6.45pm. You can attend without a partner and be guaranteed to get a game. The cost is just £4 for members and non-members. All are welcome - beginners, improvers and experts. We can learn from each other. It is a social evening so you are encouraged to bring drinks and nibbles.

The next four dates for social bridge evenings are:-

13^th July, 10^th August,14^th September,12^th October

Why not come along and give it a try.
