While our club is member-owned and offers memberships, you do not need to be a member to play. However, members receive a $2 discount each time they play. Also, ACBL membership is not required to play at our club.
How much do games cost?
Our normal game fee is $10 and members pay $8. Some games with elevated points may cost $1 more. Chat Bridge (for 0-50 masterpoints with coaching included) is $7 per session.
Do I need to have a partner?
You need a partner for all of our games except Chat Bridge (0-50 masterpoints). Partnerships are guaranteed for all games, as the director will fill in if there is a half pair. The one exception is the 0-500 game, we need at least 24 hours to find a partner as none of our directors can play in that game.
What type of games do you offer?
All of our games are Duplicate Bridge. We don't offer party Bridge, social Bridge or 500 at this time. We have mostly pair games, but at times offer team games. We have Open games (anyone can play), limited masterpoint games, and Mentor games (where newer players are paired with more experienced).
How long are the games?
Most games are around three hours, give or take 15 minutes. Our Chat Bridge is between two and two and a half hours. Limited masterpoint and evening games are approximately two and a half hours.
Do you offer lessons?
We usually offer lesson series beginning in January and September. Sometimes we offer a summer series. The lesson series have 8 2-hour lessons, and there are three of these: Bidding, Play of the Hand, and Conventions totaling 24 weeks of lessons. Classes are comprised of one hour of teaching and one hour of play which will reflect the day's topic. We sometimes offer online lessons. Please see our schedule.
