 Welcome to the Learning Centre |
If you have never played bridge before but would like to learn, please consider coming to our Absolute Beginner lessons which we hold every year in the Fall. The first set of six lessons (Bridge for Beginners 1) usually starts in the middle of September and continues into October. A further set of six lessons follows ( Bridge for Beginners 2 ) in November and December. After that we suggest you come to the Tuesday morning Learning Game for fun and practice in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere.
Further lesson series (Bridge for Beginners 3 and Intermediate topics) are held at other times of the year depending on the perceived need and availability of the teachers.
If you would like any more details about our lessons, or would like to put your name on a list for notification of beginner lessons, please contact either Maggie Sparrow msparrow@csolve.net or Frank Mustoe fmustoe@utschools.ca
