Brand New Online Pre-registration System

In order to deliver quality service, BridgeHouse has introduced a brand new online pre-registration system. An obvious advantage is to arrange and organize the venues accordingly in advance so that more players can participate. Pre-registration closes at 12:00pm on the tournament date. Registration is successfully completed if payment is made before 6:45pm. We invite and encourage you to pre-register BridgeHouse tournaments. Thank you for your co-operation!

Game at Conference Room notice

Dear Bridge Friends,

All bridge house events will be held either in the 3/F Main Hall or the 3/F Conference Room at the Mariners' Club, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon. However, due to the limited capacity of the conference room, we could not accept more than 13 full tables in the venue. In case of more than 13 tables, we have no choice but rejecting the late comers. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Solomon Mak A) 喜樂山巔忘起落
Remark:在西班牙的聖地牙哥．德孔波斯特拉，朝聖者看到目的地的地點叫作「喜樂山」。 任何徒步行走數百里前來朝聖的人，都會經歷這種刻骨銘心的喜樂。登上山頂時，感受到的 欣喜，把人生的起落都拋諸腦後了。
