Welcome to Dorset Contract Bridge Association
Dorset Committee

Dorset is looking for volunteers to join the Bridge Committee. With Jacqueline Darts retiring at this year’s AGM at the end of April the Committee needs additional members to join and contribute towards the following tasks:

  • Assisting with tournament organization and scheduling
  • Coordinating county activities and member engagement
  • Providing input on committee decisions
  • Contributing ideas and helping promote bridge throughout Dorset

 If these are areas you feel you could help us with then please contact Mark Hooper

        either by email, click Mark or by phone, MH Phone.

DCBA AGM & Udall Trophy

The Udall Trophy is a Swiss Pairs Blue Pointed event.

Click to enter.

Swiss Pairs need an even number of entries so we need a spare pair in case, either there is an odd number of entries, or a pair fail to turn up on the day.   The spare pair must turn up at the venue on the day, 27th April.  If they play, they do not pay, but it maybe they have to return home without playing. If you can act as a spare pair - please contact Jacqueline.
