Many club players have told us that they find it difficult to join in events run by the County because they don't feel good enough.  We would like to change this and offer an:
♠  "Introduction to County Bridge" ♠ 
Several of our top players have offered to host sessions on the 4th Monday of the month from October to April.  There will be 16 boards in play and this will be interspersed by discussion and teaching.  They will be friendly and fun sessions as well as being a real opportunity to play better bridge. 

Please come with a partner. We mised last month due to holidays but these sessions are proving popular and useful.

The next session is at 7.00pm on 23rd March at Cheltenham Bridge Club. Your mentor will be *TBD*.  Please be tempted!
