Bridge can be serious and very competitive, but ours is a social group and we play for fun. That is not to say that our members aren't trying to improve their game. Most have been learning between one and two years, and each week a new bidding or playing technique is discussed and tried. The occasional quiz is popular. However, we spend at least half the session playing games of bridge and, as with all bridge fanatics, it is the challenge of each hand of cards that brings us back for more.

The group is fortunate to have the use of the Leeds Bridge Club's rooms in the Moor Allerton Sports and Social Centre. It meets on Tuesday afternoons, from 3.30 to 5.00pm.
