2025 Beginners Lessons start in April - Details here

Kia Ora and Haere Mai!

Welcome to the Rotorua Bridge Club’s website. Formed in 1955, Rotorua Bridge Club is one of the strongest bridge clubs in the region, with about 150 members ranging from novices to grandmasters.
The club is situated not far from town, in Neil Hunt Park, on Tarawera Rd, just near the Te Ngae roundabout. (See map)

Learn Bridge
If you've never played bridge and are interested in learning, Rotorua Bridge Club runs a series of lessons each year. See the beginners’ page for more information about learning bridge. Click here to find out what players enjoy most about bridge.

Playing Sessions
There are four playing sessions each week – on Monday afternoons, Wednesday and Thursday evenings and Friday afternoons. Visitors are always very welcome to all sessions, with the  exception of team competitions, where it is often not possible to fit in an extra pair. If you’re in Rotorua alone and would like a partner, please contact a partnership steward – we can nearly always find you someone to play with. Most members use the Acol system, but Standard American is also played by some.

 

Upcoming events

Beginner Lessons start this week and Val and Margie are looking for volunteers to help at various sessions. Please get in touch if you can help, and let them know when you are available. A series of Improver Lessons is also underway on Monday evenings. More details these and upcoming events in the April Newsletter here.


Kelly Peirse Teams


A great day was had at the Kelly Peirse Memorial Teams on 22 March, with a very strong field from around the North Island. Congratulations to the winners, Zachary Yan, Lysandra Zheng, Tim Pan and Jeremy Fraser-Hoskin. More here


Congratulations and Commiserations

Congratulations to Liz Wilcox, who is a Grandmaster and was rated the 18th best woman on the Baden Wilson Table for most A points earned in NZ, as at 1/1/25. Well done Liz!


We are very sad to hear that Allan Rockell is resigning from the club. “Rocky” has been the longest serving member of the Rotorua Bridge Club. The club thanks you very much for your many years of support. We will miss your good humour and sense of fun, always a pleasure to play with. Go well, Rocky, and keep potting!
