welcoming LEARNERS and PLAYERS of all standards
and all those looking to develop a new skill

We also have a hearing loop, large-index playing cards,
disabled parking spaces and two electric car charging points.
We are pleased to be able to offer a wide range of ways to play
so you really can engage with bridge your way
from Assisted Play (non-competitive) to the more usual Duplicate sessions
(at various levels: First Step, Gentle, Improvers, Competitive, Championship)
and across multiple formats
Match Pointed Pairs, XIMPs, Swiss Pairs, Teams-of-4, Teams-of-8 (6 Yorkshire League Teams)
We also provide many excellent options for learning
both full courses and pay-as-you-go (topic-based) lessons for
Beginners, Improvers and those at Intermediate levels ... right up to our Advanced Seminar series
as well as free lessons and play for younger/youth players via our Youth Academy
