We are organized as a member owned, not for profit bridge club.  Our mission is to provide a venue for our members to enjoy a friendly game of duplicate bridge at a fair cost in a pleasant environment.  We also offer bridge lessons for new players and lessons for existing players desiring to improve their skills.

 District–Wide Online Games! 

The next District 4 monthly online game is Thursday, May 16 at 7 PM. The game is 200% club rated and will award black masterpoints. Participation is limited to District 4 members, so play with and against your friends. (Sorry, you cannot play with your non-District 4 pal from Florida or a robot.) Click here for more information.

 Wednesday & Saturday Games for Advancing Players 

The masterpoint eligibility in our Wednesday Points and Pointers game is 0–50, with A , B , and C stratifications ("strats"). This means that players will have a better chance to earn ACBL masterpoints if they do well within their strat.

We also have added a separate section to our Saturday game for players with no more than 20 masterpoints if the number of players is sufficient. Winners in the 0–500 section will get masterpoint awards based on the total number of tables in play in both sections.

 Points and Pointers!  Join us on Wednesdays for Points and Pointers, a real duplicate game designed for beginning and advancing players. The game is limited to players with 0–50 ACBL Masterpoints. Each table will play the same boards at the same time, and the leader of the session will discuss each board immediately after it is played. The table fee is $15, and the game will run from 12 Noon to 3 PM. Register by emailing the Club at kopbridgeclub@gmail.com or call 610–232–2250. You can also register in person at the Director's desk.

Rex Saffer presents selected topics in offensive and competitive bidding, declarer play, and defensive principles from 9:30–10:00 AM before the Friday Come Out and Play session and again before the Saturday 0–500 Limited game. The conversations will focus on fundamentals and are directed toward advancing and intermediate players.
