Welcome to the Dounby Bridge Club website. We take our bridge seriously but not too seriously and aim always to be a friendly and welcoming Club.
Sessions start at 7:00 pm each evening but players are asked to arrive 10-15 minutes beforehand and if everyone booked in has arrived play may start early.
Some members also play at Orkney Bridge Club in Kirkwall. Click on the card icons at the top left and top right of the page to open their website in a new window.

2024 Individual Rubber Bridge Competition Concluded |
The 2024 Individual Rubber Bridge competition reached its conclusion on Friday, 13 December. At the start of the evening it was still possible for any of the leading three players to affect the final result but in the end there was no change in positions or scores. The three players with the best cumulative result for ten scores over the course of the 2024 season were:
Roger Davies - 46620 points
Graham Lyon - 46300 points
Iris Clyde - 45040 points
The player with the highest single evening score during the 2024 competition was Graham Lyon with
7440 secured over just six rounds of play.
Congratulations to all these players.
Thank you to everyone who took part in the competition over the year and to those, especially Clinton and Gladys, who kept us so well supplied with tasties on Friday evenings and those who helped in various ways with setting up and clearing up.
