[Duplicate Bridge Association of Atlanta]

The DBAA is the local governing board for duplicate bridge in the metro Atlanta area. We usually run at least three sectional tournaments a year plus a weekly game, offer free lessons and in general do what we can to promote bridge in this area. We are always on the lookout for ways to promote our game and look for help and suggestions. Our weekly game is held each Wednesday night at the Atlanta Duplicate Bridge Center. It is located in an Office Park just past Burger King and Sushi Yoko on the East Feeder Road off the Winters Chapel Road exit of Peachtree Industrial Boulevard. Click here for map.
The DBAA rents the club that night from the owners of the club and is solely responsible for conducting the game and the game is in no way affiliated with the Atlanta Duplicate Bridge Center's regular schedule. Click here to find out more about who we are.

The director of the DBAA game is Miles Duke, whose e-mail address is dukefamily2006@bellsouth.net.  For partners, please contact Miles at 770-776-3475 or other DBAA board members.  You can also obtain other general information from any member of the DBAA board of directors.

Atlanta Junior Bridge Youth game

Young players were out in force at the Atlanta Labor Day Regional with a record 14 tables at the Atlanta Junior Bridge Youth game. ACBL president Sharon Fairchild was on hand to announce winners, hand out trophies, and even play a hand or two! Three early arrivals needed a fourth to fill-in and asked Sharon if she would play. She sat in to defend a 3NT contract and as her partner led, he announced "I play upside-down". . . Click here for complete details and pictures
