The government has now confirmed the relaxing of rules surrounding Covid, to be effective from 19^th July. This means the Bridge Club will reopen on Tuesday 20th July.

York Bridge Club will open on Tuesdays and Friday for afternoon sessions starting at 1pm.

A booking process will operate because we are limiting participation to 6 tables at each session. The procedure you need to follow is detailed at LINK.

The Trustees objective is to ensure that the environment is as safe as possible. They have drafted 2 documents which: -

• Provide an outline plan of how the playing room will be organised and the procedures we have put in place.
• Best Practice Guidance which members should follow whilst on the Bridge Club premises.

The Trustees Outline Plan can be found HERE.

The Best Practice Guidance can be found HERE

We request that all members playing face to face bridge at Holgate Road read both documents thoroughly before attending a bridge session.

After completing beginner classes, the recommended progression is to play in a bridge session with teachers present who can advise you on bidding when you are uncertain what to do   We are currently running weekly online “Learn and Play” sessions on Tuesdays and Fridays 1.30pm, and Wednesdays from 10am

The sessions use the Realbridge platform This allows the students to not only play the game but interact with each other as it also utilises the computer's camera and microphone. This has been very successful and brought several new players into the club   We currently manage around four tables a session, but numbers are growing    It helps inexperienced players gain in confidence as they play more bridge in a relaxed and supportive environment.  

Please email Azizah Clayton at Aclayton@theyorkbridgeclub.com if you require further information or want to participate.

As a spin off from this we have introduced a Wednesday night session on BBO for any member or potential members rated NGS<6. The session is 12 boards costing $3 and free for Juniors.  The session has only been introduced during January but has been popular with the Club’s less experienced players. We now have a natural progression of online sessions leading up to the regular sessions played by the more experienced players
