LARKHILL BRIDGE CLUB
LARKHILL BRIDGE CLUB

Welcome to Larkhill Bridge Club

We are very happy to accept new members especially those who are looking for a friendly club where they can can play online and occasionally face to face and we warmly accept people who are unfamiliar with the online game as we are happy to offer tailored help and practice with these sessions and have a director who offers advice on the technical side and has produced some excellent videos. Location is not a problem when playing online as we have members playing even when on holiday abroad.

Started in May 2010 our intention was to encourage novice players and lapsed players to join more seasoned players in taking part in friendly, duplicate bridge. 

We recommend you join us via RealBridge on Thursdays and Fridays.  We ask that you log in at 1.45pm for a prompt start. We are an affiliated club and so you can enjoy all the benefits of being a member of the EBU including issues of their magazinr always available online through ‘My EBU’ on their website or have a copy posted to you if this is your preferred option. If you have any queries please contact Anne on 0161 283 2992. 

We are renowned for our superb Christmas Party Buffets held at an attractive venue and heavily subsidized by the the club as a ‘thank you’ to our regular playing members.

Associates can register to play in our Friday Club for a small online playing fee. Full members can play in any of our sessions.

 Visitors who register are welcome to play on Fridays which we run on RealBridge and pay through our kitty system.

Our table money for Members and Associates remains very competitive at only £2.50 per player. 

In addition to the bridge we also run a dining club so local members can socialise on an occasional basis. Details can be found in the yellow drop down menu on the left hand side of our webpage.

Click. HERE to go directly to our RealBridge sessions which run on Thursday and Friday at 2pm. You will need your EBU number to play.

If you have not deposited a kitty with us then you will need to do so and pay your annual playing fee of £5. Details of how to pay are on this web page.

You should join after 1:30pm and click on a seat at any table.   If your partner is logged in you sit opposite them. If playing on an ipad please ensure it is fully charged as video games use more power.

BEFORE  you play on RealBridge for the first time you should test your camera and microphone will work with the system.
