| New courses starting in the Spring |
Have you booked a course for the spring yet? A "Bridge For Complete Beginners" course will be starting at the end of February on Wednesday evenings. We have introduced a new course "Bridge for Beginners - The Next Step". We are offering a choice of evening or afternoon course beginning after Easter. As well as useful consolidation for the autumn beginners, it is also an ideal course for rusty returners and for social players who feel they would benefit from a short course on basic bidding and card play. These courses are filling fast - so book now to avoid disappointment. There are no intermediate courses until the autumn, but there are three intermediate plus courses starting at the end of February. Finally, people who play in clubs and find the going tough will enjoy the series of five workshops starting in March. Please look at the Bridge Classes Menu for details |
