Welcome to the website of the Northern Bridge League.
Formed in 2006, the NBL is a teams-of-eight competition between the  County Bridge Associations of Northern England and North Wales. The League is divided into three Divisions. The A Division is for teams consisting of the county's best players, the B Division is for the county's next best players, whilst the C Division is aimed at club players.

There are four all-play-all events each year, held on Saturdays in the Summer months. Events, which are of around 42 boards, start at 12.30.  A buffet meal is included, and most people are on their way home by early evening.

The 2017 dates are now posted on the fixtures page.

The final round of matches was played on 8th October.  In the A division perennial winners Manchester retained their title with a win on the day to finish 9 VPs clear of Yorkshire 2.  The B division was very close this year, but Manchester won the last round of matches to overtake Cumbria.  In the C division Yorkshire SE just pipped Lancashire for the title.  Good luck to all the division winners in the National Finals next year.

Thanks to Stuart Davies, Bernard Kaye, Jeff Smith and all directors, host clubs and caterers for their hard work in running this most enjoyable event.
