Welcome

Welcome to Ascot Bridge Club's web site.

This site aims to provide both members and visitors with all the key information on what's happening and what's planned within the club.

There is bridge played at the Ascot club every Monday afternoon and Tuesday evening - except on bank holidays and the week between Christmas and New Year. Whilst the Monday afternoon section of the club plays exclusively duplicate pairs bridge, the Tuesday evening section includes teams of four evenings several times every year.

Diary

Please note that due to the widespread adverse weather conditions, the decision was taken nationally to postpone the SIM Pairs from 12th January 2010 to 19th January 2010. (posted 14th Jan 2010)
