Wakefield Bridge Club

Wakefield Bridge Club, right in the heart of Wakefield, is where bridge enthusiasts gather for some serious fun. With around 170 members already loving the game, the club's looking to welcome even more folks who fancy giving bridge a go.

Bridge isn't just for the pros - it’s perfect for anyone, whether you’re a total newbie or an old hand. Schools, universities, social groups, you name it, everyone’s getting in on this. Stephen Hanslip, the organiser, is your go-to guy if you want to dive into bridge or get back on the wagon. Hit him up at 0781 555 3130 or shoot an email to secretary@wakefieldbridgeclub.org.

Not sure where to start or need a partner? No worries, Danny Parsonson’s got your back. Ring him at 0758 147 6235 or drop a line to dannyparsonson@hotmail.com for all the info you need.

Bridge isn’t just a game; it’s a brain workout and a great way to meet new mates. Plus, playing keeps your mind sharp and socially active. The club is all about making it easy for you to jump in, have a blast, and maybe even pick up a few tricks along the way.

But that’s not all - come the New Year, they’re rolling out a new session called “Bridge + Cake”. Beginners, early learners, or those who just want a more laid-back game can dig in. There’ll be notes, crib sheets, and plenty of time to make your moves. And yes, there’s cake halfway through, because why not?

This session focuses on card play and defence rather than all those confusing bidding systems. It’s about having fun and hanging out with fellow players.

Whether you're a bridge whizz or just curious to see what it's all about, Wakefield Bridge Club is the place to be. Swing by and give bridge a go - you might just get hooked!
