CFUW Kanata - Bridge

Bridge Groups

Currently some Bridge groups are meeting in-person and some are playing virtually using Bridge Base Online.com This program is free to download. Contact a Convenor if you wish to join in the fun.

Mixed Duplicate Bridge
2nd & 4th Mondays at 9:00 a.m. Also, 1st and 3rd Fridays at 7:00 p.m.

Convenor: Marianne Moore

Duplicate bridge is played on line BBO on the first and third Friday of the month. Partners can be any gender and if you need a partner to play, the convenor will try to assist. You and your competition will choose a convenient time to play 2 days before or after the date. The schedule will be emailed and the "host" will set up the games and return the results to the convenor. All new players are welcome.

Monday Afternoon Bridge – every Monday 1:00 p.m.
Convenor: Linda Story
Monday Afternoon Bridge Group meets almost every Monday of the year (unless there is a big holiday) from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at members' homes. We have 16 regular members plus players on a spares list. Members are asked to call each hostess two weeks in advance of her hosting Monday to reserve a playing position. Most hostesses are able to accommodate three tables of Bridge.

Tyros Bridge -- 1^st and 3^rd Wednesday 1:30 p.m.

Convenor: Anne Brackstone

This bridge group started playing on alternate Wednesday afternoons. During Covid we played using an app called BBO. Several members had other commitments and the group has not played the last couple of years. Tyros means "Welcome" and we would like to have new members who have played Bridge before or who have had lessons. If you want to play but can't join us on Wednesdays, please suggest an afternoon that is better for you and we may be open to suggestions.

Wednesday Afternoon Bridge – every Wednesday 1:00 p.m.
Convenor: Rosemary Chatterley

This group originated from a core of people who attended a CFUW/Kanata's Beginners' Bridge class in the spring of 2005!! Since then, we have all enjoyed the friendship with the challenge of Bridge in a supportive, non-critical, learning environment. Men are also welcome to play at these sessions.
Sign-up with the host for Regular Members can start a week beforehand, and Spares in the 3 days beforehand. The host provides tea, coffee, etc. and some nibbles. The group’s aim again is to have a friendly, positive atmosphere, playing Bridge as per ACBL rules.
