Hi, welcome to the forum, hope you will like it here !

google on their names plus "bridge" (or "contract bridge" or some bridge-related keywords if it gives you too many hits related to the other meaning of "bridge". If you are from a non-English speaking country it should not be a problem).

If they are active bridge players you will probably find them on some tournament or club result lists.

if you are enthusiastic about finding them, may I suggest you contact your National Bridge Federation.

I wanted to track down a guy i played with a few years back. He left suddenly ( for good reason :) ) and left no forwarding address.

I contacted the EBU ( English Bridge Union) and they gave me in which county he was registered. After that it was just a matter of contacting a few clubs and hitting the jackpot.
