Victoria Region Men's and Newcomers Club

Tennis
2026-11-23 09:00 - 10:30 (America/Vancouver) | BC
DESCRIPTION: We play social tennis, the level of play is respectable, but perhaps a little short of tournament class. We rotate partners for each of the three sets played and find this to be a great equalizer for players of various skill levels. Coffee after and time to talk about professional tennis and any other topic of interest.
WHERE: Outdoors using some of Victoria’s excellent free tennis courts and Indoors at both Cedar Hill and Oak Bays’ indoor bubbles.
WHEN: Play normally 9:00-10:30AM on Mondays & Thursdays, unless indoors then often at 8:00AM depending on booking.
WHO: Currently 12 players (not all play each event). Open to all VRMNC Members (and guests who may be interested in joining the club).
BRING: Tennis gear, sun glasses and your water bottle, cash if indoor court for booking.

Social Bridge
2026-11-23 13:00 - 16:00
DESCRIPTION: Beginners are welcome but some knowledge of the game and playing experience are required. We, in general, follow Standard American bidding conventions and ACBL contract bridge rules. That said, the emphasis is on fellowship and fun, not competition. Currently there are four groups.
Each group consists of a core group of 8 to 10 players who meet on a regular schedule. Frequently core group players are not able to play on a given night so a list of spares is maintained for all groups and players to call upon. This gives spares many opportunities to play and to get to know other VRMNC Members.
Anyone interested in playing in a social context is encouraged to contact the Coordinator to learn more and to put their name forward for the spares list.
WHERE: Regular players host at their homes on a rotational basis, occasionally use Zoom if snow etc.
WHEN: Most groups play weekly at nights or afternoons, some stop for summer.
WHO: Open to all VRMNC Members. VRMNC Members wishing to play should join the spares list for opportunities to play and be positioned to join a group on a regular basis when vacancies arise.
BRING: There are no fees to play but many groups have a $1 ante to play each evening. The proceeds are divided amongst the top two and the lowest player of the evening. The host supplies the cards, beverages and snacks.
