Hall of Fame tennis star, Martina Navratilova – “Bridge is more than just a card game. It’s a cerebral sport. Bridge teaches you logic, reasoning, quick thinking, patience, concentration and partnership skills. And no matter where I go, I can always make new friends at the bridge table.”
Billionaire and Businessman Warren Buffet - “Bridge is such a sensational game that I wouldn’t mind being in jail if I had three cellmates who were decent players and who were willing to keep the game going 24 hours a day.”
And our own award-winning novelist, Niall Tóibín - “I remember the pure disappointment when the last game would have to be played, and life, in all its dullness, would have to be faced again with no cards in my hand.”
