Bridge, also known as contract bridge, is a popular trick-taking card game played with a standard deck of 52 cards. It involves two competing partnerships, with partners sitting opposite each other. Millions of people worldwide play bridge, making it one of the most popular card games globally. The World Bridge Federation governs international competitive bridge.
At Taupo Bridge Club, we believe that bridge is more than just a card game. It is a mentally stimulating exercise that improves memory and sharpens wits. Beyond the tables, bridge fosters friendship and loyalty within our community.
Come and join us at Taupo Bridge Club for an enjoyable and rewarding bridge experience. Our friendly members and beautiful setting await you.
