On the evening of Thursday June 5th, we will be participating in the YCBA-promoted Handicapped SIM Pairs event, in competition with clubs from Doncaster, Halifax, Harrogate, Huddersfield, Hull, Keighley, Ilkley, Sheffield, Wakefield, Wetherby and York.

There is a prize fund of £200 and the winners will be invited to select a charity to which their prize money will be gifted.

All are welcome; we will play 24 boards, as usual, and there will be no additional cost to take part.

You may be interested in the following '6-High' competition, to be held at Wetherby Bridge Club on Saturday 5th July - for players with NGS of 2-6. Please see the flyer for details.

We are pleased announce that this year's Swiss Pairs competition (for the Leeds Shield) will be held at the club on Sunday 18th May. It will comprise 6 x 6-board matches, starting at 1:30pm and finishing at around 7pm, and will be fully blue-pointed. We are grateful to Oliver Cowan for running the event, to whom registration and all enquiries should be made.

F2F SESSIONS CANCELLED - WEEK OF 6th JANUARY

Due to the inclement weather conditions and freezing forecast for the next few days, on safety grounds, we have taken the difficult decision to CANCEL all face to face sessions at Leeds Bridge Club for the remainder of this week.

We hope to run an online session on Real Bridge on Wednesday afternoon - please see our website for further details.

Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas and all the best for 2025!

One more F2F session to go in 2024 (30/12 Monday morning Chicago) before we return in 2025 with Stepping Stones and Duplicate Pairs on the 2nd January.

Have fun!
