Welcome to Bridge in Oz
Posted: 06 Apr 2020, 09:28
The COVID-19 pandemic has been a disaster for the game of bridge.
When it hit Australia bridge clubs closed, including my home club in Coffs Harbour. Members were left with no good way to communicate with each other except one-to-one. Community interaction was lost. I was inspired to create this discussion forum as a way for us to continue our interactions, and similarly for other bridge players across Australia and even the world.
