ACBL

For bridge players across North America, the American Contract Bridge League (ACBL) is more than just a governing body; it is the heart of their competitive and social gaming experience. We understand that our members seek not only to play the game they love but to improve their skills, connect with a like-minded community, and achieve recognition for their accomplishments. That is why we are dedicated to promoting, growing, and sustaining the game of bridge, ensuring it remains a vibrant and accessible mind sport for generations to come.

We serve over 130,000 members by sanctioning more than 3.5 million tables of bridge annually, ranging from local club games to prestigious North American Bridge Championships. Our comprehensive ecosystem supports players at every level, offering robust education programs for beginners, certification for teachers and directors, and a sophisticated Masterpoints system to track and reward player performance. By partnering with online platforms and maintaining a strong network of affiliated clubs, we provide our community with the resources, opportunities, and fair play standards they need to thrive in the ultimate partnership game.
