About the Club
Our new member packet includes a publication called "Adventures
in Duplicate Bridge," a game schedule, a phone list with players
that would love to see you at the table, and all the information
on how we can help you get started. We have partners for you!
Many of our players feel that the Bridge Center is "their home
away from home." We hope that you too will feel the same way as
you meet new friends and renew old acquaintances, all while playing
bridge in a social and fun environment.
Whether you are just new to the game or coming back to play after
an absence of months or years, we want to extend you a warm
welcome. The Bridge Center can provide you lots of fun, friends,
lessons, a relaxing atmosphere, and opportunities to exercise your
mind and spirit while starting or continuing your bridge journey.
What a great game it is, fun for a lifetime!
Come join us, we are looking forward to seeing you at the table!
We have all kinds of people that are looking forward to meeting you
and that would love to become your partner. The game schedule has
all the times we play (7 days a week!). Take a look at our
List of Members link and start counting these people as your
new found friends and your bridge group.
The Bridge Center has two important rules:
Rule 1 - Smile at Partner and have fun!
Give us a call, we are looking forward to meeting you!
Sincerely,
Your Bridge Center Friends

Dear Bridge Member,
We are all very happy and proud of our Bridge Center. The added
influx of new players has increased enthusiasm and enjoyment for
everyone.
As with any organization that grows, there are changes that need
to be made to assure that growth and prosperity continue. We are
always so proud to hear the comments from outside bridge players
saying what a friendly and nice group of people we have at our
Center.
We want our bridge games to be an enjoyable experience for all
levels of players. We are striving to provide a happy, friendly,
well-mannered and user friendly environment that will be a second
home for you and your friends.
To achieve the type of friendly atmosphere we desire, we all need
to exhibit the following good behaviors which will add to everyone's
enjoyment of the game.
- Greet others in a friendly manner.
- Be a good host or guest at the table.
- Praise the bidding and/or play of the opponents.
- Avoid discussion of hands, bidding, play, or results of
a board which may be overheard by others that haven't
played that board.
- Smile at partner.
- Call the Director whenever there is a question or concern,
the Director is here to help.
In the interest of preserving a pleasant and enjoyable environment
in which to play bridge, the following rules of conduct have been
adopted by the Bridge Club of Springfield and the Abe Lincoln Bridge
Club for games conducted at the Bridge Center.
