Team Funbridge at the 8th World Youth Transnational Championships!

New challenge for Team Funbridge after their first tournaments of the year in Alpe d’Huez and the Marit Sveaas tournament in Bodø, Norway. Follow their new adventures in Poland on this page which will be regularly updated!

The 8th World Youth Transnational Championships will be played from Saturday 13 to Thursday 18 July in Wroclaw, Poland. Get ready for 6 days of fierce competition! For some, it will be tiring as they come right after the 29th European Youth Teams Championships taking place at the same venue from 7 to 12 July. The WBF (World Bridge Federation) and the Polish Bridge Union are co-organising the events.

Team Funbridge will be competing there. It will be their third trip in 2024 after Alpe d’Huez and Bodø.
