| WELCOME TO RICHMOND BRIDGE CLUB |

Welcome to Richmond Bridge Club, the most popular and successful EBU affiliated club in the country! A friendly and progressive club, we are housed in the old Bowling Club Pavilion in Cambridge Park, nestled between Richmond & Twickenham. Our Clubhouse has multiple playing rooms, teaching facilities and a fully licensed bar.
We offer a range of duplicate bridge sessions every day of the week for players of all abilities - our full schedule of regular events may be found here.
Our Academy offers lessons for new players, beginners and improvers, and seminars for more experienced players. For more detail about the different sessions for novices and improvers, please click here.
The club no longer runs a Thursday morning BBO session due to reduced numbers.
