Our club was founded in 1953 in downtown Birmingham. Over the years we have outgrown space after space and we are now located in a suburb of Hoover. The Birmingham Duplicate Bridge Club is affiliated with the American Contract Bridge League in District 10: Mid-South Bridge Conference, Unit 157.

Here are some memories from our 70+ years of bridge, fun and friendship.

In 2023 we celebrated our 70th anniversary. Here are some memories from the early 2000’s.

Frank Stewart, a distinguished author of bridge books and a nationally syndicated columnist who is also a member of our club, speaks at one of our events.
