| Welcome to Bendigo Bridge Club |
Bendigo is located in Central Victoria, 150kms north of Melbourne. The city grew from one of the major gold rush settlements in Victoria in the 1850s. The modern city benefits from the riches of its past, with beautiful heritage buildings and expansive parks. It has an enviable arts and cultural precinct and a wide range of eating and dining establishments.
Bendigo Bridge Club was established in 1979. The club is affiliated with the Victorian Bridge Association (VBA) and the Australian Bridge Federation (Club 3315). The club is also a member of the Victorian Northern Region Bridge Association, and fully supports all bridge events conducted by the Region and the clubs within the Region.
Bendigo Bridge Club conducts three open duplicate bridge tournaments every week plus a relaxed (social) play session, providing all our members with the opportunity to enjoy playing bridge with friends.
Visitors and guests are most welcome provided they comply with current Covid-safety regulations.

| Mini Lessons |
Our mini lessons were a great success this year we had such a great turnout. Thanks to all who participated and special thanks to Vicki and the education committee for organising, and of course those advanced players who gave their time and effort to share their wisdom. Shoutout to Ryan Touton, Chris Turner, Peter Goddard, Kevin Gunn and Kerry Delcourt. Also if you missed a lesson I have tried to upload notes I can under Education -> Mini Lessons. See you for more lessons next year.
