Welcome to 3 Counties Bridge
Rekindling Bridge in Schools

You can help us rekindle interest in Schools bridge.  Prior to the pandemic we provided teachers and supervisors to support the establishment of bridge sessions in schools across the counties; the events of the past few years meant these sessions went into decline. 

We would like to provide Taster Sessions in schools with the aim of starting a Bridge Club.

How you can help (1): if you have a contact in a school and/or a son or daughter, or grandson or granddaughter in a school, and would like to help identify which schools would like to have a Taster Session, then please RSVP as soon as possible to

douglaswright@3countiesbridge.com 

We hope to identify 5 or more schools, so that we can run Tasters Sessions in September / October.

How you can help (2): We would also like to run a course for all interested bridge players on "How to Teach Bridge in Schools". That could be you!  No previous experience required. Once again contact

douglaswright@3countiesbridge.com with your interest, no matter how tentative

We would also like to identify any school teacher, who would like to be involved.

We hope to identify more schools next term, and run the ‘How to teach Bridge in Schools" courses in August, so time is of the essence!

NEWS FLASH

The dates and locations of these courses are:

The dates for "How to Teach Bridge in Schools" courses are:

18 August 9.30am @ Eastbourne Bridge Club
