BEST PRACTICE FOR GETTING HOME AT A REASONABLE HOUR.

1) CHECK BOARD AND PAIR numbers before taking out cards.

2) MAKE the opening lead BEFORE filling in your score card.

3) Dummy to put down their hand BEFORE getting absorbed in their own admin.

Declarer can get on and plan /play  rather than sit there watching tops of heads and pen pushing. We could rattle through the evening if just these suggestions alone are acted upon by everyone.

  NEW Duplicate Bridge Session

EVERY WEDNESDAY (except 1st Wednesday of the month)

 2PM –5:00PM

This new session to our weekly programme is intended to appeal to :

♠ any  friendly bridge players wishing to play duplicate in the afternoon

♠ those unfamiliar with duplicate bridge

♠  improvers wanting a little more competition than is currently available

Initially 16 boards will be played and no master points awarded during a trial period.

It is hoped that once the  session is established the number of boards will increase and master points will become available.

THERE WILL STILL BE SEVERAL TABLES WHERE our TUTORS are happy to help beginners and improvers with bidding and card play, or where new partnerships can thrash out their systems.

Tea or Coffee at half –time.

 

 

  The Club
The Club

We are a small Duplicate Bridge Club which started in 1977. Christmas Day seems to be only reason for at least some of us not to fore-gather and play, not because we are hugely or terrifyingly competitive but purely because it is enjoyable. The ethos of the club is friendly and relaxed apart from occasional bickering about the state of the stationery cupboard. 

Visitors and guests are welcome and as we run a host system- partnerless players are no problem.

Club night is on Monday, start of play is 7pm sharp. Table money £1.00, visitors £2.00.

Learners/improvers  are welcome on Wednesday afternoons (2pm start of play). Table money of £2.00 includes tea or coffee. This is for those wishing to revitalise rusty skills or experience duplicate bridge. There is help with bidding, and after a hand is finished all is revealed and there is a brief discussion about how things might have gone better, or praise for a hand well played. 

The Conservative Club provides a comfortable home for us. Not only is there a largish recently re-furbished room, but also a well stocked fully licenced bar or tea and coffee. Please click here for more details about the Conservative Club.
