Marathon Bridge runs from September through April. If you are an experienced bridge player it is a wonderful way to play your favourite card game, and get to know people in Durham West who also love the game of bridge. This is not for duplicate bridge players as our members play for the enjoyment of the game and are not competitive.
Marathon Bridge session sign-ups are held in August.
The convenor(s) create a schedule of games for the players. Each team plays 10 games between September & April. You host 5 home games at your home and play 5 away games. In other words, there are only 4 players each time you are playing. The scores are sent to the convenors who keep a record and finalize the results in May.
After many years of running our Marathon Bridge, David and Irveen Powley are passing the baton to Joan Gall. Please contact Joan if you have any questions or need information.
Contact: Joan Gall using our directory (Members Only).

2023-24 New Season My husband David and I, have been members of the PROBUS Clubs of Ajax and Durham West for over 20 years and have enjoyed it immensely; we have gladly taken our turn in various Chairs, (Social, Bridge, VP, Pres, Past Pres) etc. For the past few years we have offered to organize the Marathon bridge activity as it was going to fold since there were no volunteers. It is now back in full form and we have 12 teams getting under way for 2023-24. |
