Welcome to New Hertford Bridge Club
BRIDGE IT'S A BIG DEAL

Thank you to everyone who contributed whether playing or not in our charity fundraiser on Tuesday  10 September. We raised £150 for Cancer Research.

We are a friendly club and play duplicate bridge on Tuesday evenings in the Waterford Village Hall. Sessions start promptly at 19:30. You should be seated by 19:20 in order to allow time to set the movement. If you are unavoidably delayed call 07842 899603

Visitors are welcome and their first two sessions are free. If you would like to play but do not have a partner - visitor or member, please contact the chair or secretary and we will do our best to find you a partner.  Non-members may not play on club competition evenings. Please check the calendar.

Membership is £10 per annum; table money is £2.50 or, for visitors, £3.50 (after first two free sessions). See box below on how to pay.

We do not offer bridge training ourselves but  nearby Welwyn Garden Bridge Club runs an extensive teaching programme from beginner through to intermediate - www.bridgewebs.com/welwyngardencity

Waterford is located on the road to Stevenage, the A119, about 1.5 miles north of  Hertford.  The Village Hall is on the right just as you enter the village coming from Hertford.

A location map can be found by clicking on the side menu 'where and when'. For more information please contact the Secretary, Amanda Barnes on 01992 505688, or Chair, Glen Parry on 07817 644092

 

Forthcoming HBA Events

Championship Pairs

Any pair scoring 53% or more at a Herts club session during October will be eligible to enter the Semi-Final in January - provided that they have HBA Membership with Hertfordshire as the County of Primary Allegiance.  This applies to both club members and visitors. The sessions will have no restriction on level but must be submitted to the EBU to count.

Players may enter as many club sessions as they wish in their attempt at qualification for the semi-final and heats can be played with different partners, but a player must have the same partner throughout the later stages of the competition.

For more information contact the Tournament Secretary at hbatournamentsec@gmail.com
