Leeds Bridge Club Trust

We are a friendly and active club located within the Moor Allerton Sports and Social Centre. We are currently offering four face-to-face bridge sessions a week to suit a variety of levels and courses for beginners and improvers.  

In addition to our face-to-face sessions, we have an online pairs session, on BBO, on Monday evenings and an online 'Stepping Stones' session, on RealBridge, on Wednesday evenings. 

'Chicago' - Mondays at 10.30 am

'Pairs' - Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7.30 pm

'Gentle Duplicate' - Wednesdays at 1.45 pm (Hosted)

SESSION START TIMES:  Please note that in the case of our Tuesday and Thursday 'Pairs' and our Wednesday 'Gentle Duplicate', players should arrive at the club at least 10 minutes before the scheduled start time so that the correct movement can be set by the TD and Scorer in order to enable play to start on time.
