LAHORE: The Balijee International Bridge Championship will be contested at the international standard bridge playing arena of Lahore Gymkhana Club from March 23 to 26 here. Expectations are that foreign players from India, Kuwait and Egypt will be participating for honours and lucrative prize money. And although these overseas players are considered amongst the accomplished ones at the international level, the Pakistani seasoned ones are adept and proficient and capable of matching wits and skills with the best. The leading bridge players from Karachi, Islamabad and other cities are all going to converge to Lahore Gymkhana in full strength, but all those who have still not registered can do so by contacting Ihsan Qadir at the Lahore Gymkhana Bridge Room.
