Kids, Kids, Kids!

Whether you're 10 or 100.  Whether you've got 'em or not....  If you're a bridge player, then the future of kids in bridge affects you.

Here are some updates on what is going on in the bridge world with kids.  I might add - anything you can do to help helps us all!

Welcome to School Bridge LEAGUE, a division of The LEAGUE, a unique learning experience for young people that promotes critical thinking, analytical and communication skills and team-building. The game of Bridge gives students the confidence to address issues in their communities with logical and useful solutions. These skills also allow students to participate in School Bridge LEAGUE tournaments, form school bridge teams and grow within the School Bridge LEAGUE community. School Bridge LEAGUE as a division of The LEAGUE also equips our youth with the resources to make a positive impact in their communities by providing them with the critical thinking and team-building skills needed to make this happen. 

Within School Bridge LEAGUE students compete based on their level of experience, from beginners (those who have been playing less than six months) to advanced (those that have been playing more than two years). Students can also compete in the Mini-Bridge division, which does not include the bidding process, so any student, even the most recent to the game of Bridge, can compete. Participants of School Bridge LEAGUE gain experience in developing vital analytical and communication skills and also have opportunities to win exclusive prizes such as JetBlue Airways tickets (a national sponsor of The LEAGUE) and participate in live tournaments! 

School Bridge LEAGUE will host the following four tournaments:

Halloween Tournament October 27^th- November 9^th
Winter Holiday Tournament December 8^th- 14^th 
Valentine’s Day Tournament February 4^th- 16^th 
End of Year/ Spring Tournament April 28^th – May 10^th 

It’s not too late to be a part of our exciting upcoming Halloween Tournament! If you are interested in exposing your students to this wonderful experience join us. Please contact us at [email protected]
