As players progress, they can join the Next Steps events for more competitive bridge games without assistance. The club's library also houses an extensive collection of bridge books for members to borrow, and experienced players are always available to provide guidance and support.

The club warmly welcomes individuals of all experience levels to join their face-to-face sessions at the club premises. Non-members can also participate in these sessions, creating an inclusive and enjoyable environment for the bridge-playing community in Scarborough.

For those interested in learning bridge, the club will be re-starting bridge lessons for beginners in January 2024. Individuals can contact the club to express their interest or visit the club and introduce themselves personally.
