During the Autumn of 2016 Steve Dooley and George Delafield will be giving a series of seminars on bridge topics at Thurlestone Village Hall.  These seminars are open to all members of the Kingsbridge Estuary U3A Bridge group, and other U3A members on registering as a member of the KEU3A Bridge group for a £5 one-off payment.  Attendance is £2 per person - the same as the table money at the duplicate sessions.

The schedule of seminars, and further details may be seen by clicking this window.

No further lectures will be given at the Friday duplicate sessions.

Kingsbridge Estuary U3A Bridge Group is a part of the University of the Third Age and is affiliated to the English Bridge Union.

The group meets on a Friday from September to May and welcomes both experienced players and beginners.

The emphasis is on learning and playing the ACOL system.

The group endeavours to prepare members for playing in duplicate bridge clubs by giving experience of playing in a reasonably formal environment.

Tuition and coaching are provided and this includes proper bidding practice and play, best behaviour, etiquette and scoring.

Sessions are normally played as duplicate with occasional multiple teams.

Wherever possible pre-dealt hands are used and hand records provided.

Individuals are welcome to attend and will be partnered with someone of similar ability.

The U3A Bridge Group is not meeting in June, July and August.

You can continue to play bridge during the summer at:

Thurlestone Bridge Club. Wednesday and Friday evenings.
