Want to coach a college team? We’ll fund you!
The ACBL Educational Foundation and the American Contract Bridge League are partnering to grow bridge on college campuses. We want to bring the joy and benefits of bridge to more schools and students. We’ll help with bridge supplies, coaching stipends and free ACBL first year Junior Memberships.
Work with a team of faculty, students and administrators interested in hosting a college bridge team or club. The coach may also be a local volunteer.
