Join Us for the Ultimate Celebration of Youth Bridge – The Youth NABC!
Younger bridge players from around the world will take Philadelphia by storm during the 2025 Youth NABC, July 31-August 2, 2025 and you’re invited!
The Youth North American Bridge Championships (NABC) is an exciting three-day event during the summer where you’ll meet, have lunch and play with other bridge fans your own age. Each day features games for both newer and more advanced players, and at the end, we’ll wrap up everything with an awards ceremony.
Not only is entry and lunch free for participants, but college scholarships and trophies are up for grabs, too! You just need to be an ACBL member under the age of 21, and Junior memberships are only $5.
So, exercise your mind, make new friends and soak up days of bridge at the 2025 Youth NABC July 31 – August 2, 2025 (Thursday to Saturday). Whether you’re a seasoned player or just getting started, you won’t want to miss this event! Registration opens January 1, 2025.
The complete schedule is coming soon, but here’s a sneak peek:
• Daily Minibridge games – New this year! (introduction to bridge for brand new players)
• Daily Cardrook games (bridge for newer players with fewer than 5 masterpoints)
• Baron Barclay Pairs Event
