CARDS Bridge Centre, Brisbane

CARDS Bridge Centre has been in existence for more than 20 years, and is a privately-owned bridge club in Brisbane, with sessions at New Farm Bowls Club, Brunswick St New Farm ( Monday, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays).
The 150 or so members are very friendly, and while the Duplicates are reasonably competitive, the Help with Play sessions are very relaxed.
Table service is available, and espresso coffee, sandwiches, light snacks may be ordered at any time.

DUPLICATE GAMES

Regular competitive games with masterpoints are offered three times a week. Come with a partner, or let us know in advance that you need a partner. We play approx 27 hands per session.

SUPERVISED (Help with Play) SESSIONS

Help with bidding and play as you play the hands. Just ask for friendly advice from your tutor. No need to come with a partner. Starts with a tip and practice hand with Joan, and then play approximately 12 hands.
