🎄 NSBC Christmas & New Year Sessions 🎄

Santa’s packing his sleigh, the directors are polishing their bidding boxes, and we’re rolling into the festive season with (mostly!) business as usual.

✨ Holiday Schedule Highlights

  • No sessions on Christmas Day (25 December) — even bridge players deserve a day to eat, nap, repeat.
  • All sessions on Christmas Eve (24 December) are Red Points — come earn some festive sparkle.
  • All applicable sessions on Thursday 1 January are Red Points — kick off 2026 with a splash of red.

Other than that, all sessions will run as normal — same times, same venues, same friendly faces, just with a little extra cheer.
