Welcome once again to all our new beginners and everyone at Easts Bridge Club.

I welcome all our new beginners and everyone to Easts Bridge Club. Our mission is to make this club Sydney’s friendliest place to come and play bridge with friends, laughter and of course a little competition amongst mates.

Hello Fellow Spring Lovers!
Welcome to spring, past the soaking, cold winter with warming weather heading to summer.
I’m happy to be back from my holiday in Europe and thank our wonderful committee and directors for keeping the club’s wheels turning so efficiently during my absence. Special thanks to Terry Maunsell who organises and runs our many great parties, while also being our very successful club treasurer and Theo Mangos as our tireless matchmaker. Also thanks to Nick Hughes for being bulletin editor in my absence.
