TASTER DUPLICATE

NEW LESSONS STARTING

At Northampton Bridge Club, 16 The Crescent, Northampton NN1 4SB, we plan to start a new course for beginners on 23rd May 2013.  Previous courses have proved very popular and successful.

This new course will run for ten weeks, on Thursday afternoons, 1-15 pm for 1.30-3.30pm. The ten two hour lessons cost £6 each (£60 for the course).  This course teaches the very basics of bridge; we run follow on courses.  Our aim is to encourage you to play and practice what you have learnt at the club's Wednesday afternoon bridge sessions and Thursday evening sessions.

Bridge is a very social activity and your teachers (Ross and Mo) run the course actively encouraging and promoting the game, plus we always give individual help and advice when needed and we make sure that it is fun! We are both EBU trained and use professional teaching methods.

If you are  interested please let us know. You can come along to the first lesson or two, before you make any payment, in case you decide it is not for you-and that is fine.

Our contact details are 

Mo Simpson  on 01604 495294 or mo.simps@gmail.com

or

Ross Stacey on 01604 630431 or rossstacey@tiscali.co.uk

Should  you enrol on courses you will meet lots of new friends; potentially this network can expand both locally and nationally. Bridge is a very social hobby and is surprisingly inexpensive. Playing bridge will open up a new way of life to you.

As a reminder to those who have completed two thirds of the Improvers course we will complete the final ten weeks in the autumn in the run up to Christmas:

Do you want to try out duplicate bridge - once tasted there is no turning back.

Partners always found.

The first Wednesday of the month session is aimed specifically at people who wish to try out duplicate bridge with others who are also fairly new to this form of the game. Pre-dealt hands used with computer scoring and duplicate format. At the end of the session results and hands are published on the web.  Commentary printouts available. Bidding tips are also provided.

Our Wednesday events have proved so popular that consequently every Wednesday afternoon the club is open for anyone wishing to try bridge. These Wedneday's are open to non club members. The first Wednesday is a "Taster" with handouts and the last Wednesday is a CHICAGO session at £5 with cake and prizes. The remaining Wednesdays (£3) are straightforward duplicate sessions.  A printed club calendar can be provided; please also see the calendar on this web site.

Relaxed and Easy Play.  £3-00 including tea and biscuits for most Wednesdays with one Wednesday Chicago at £5 with better refreshments and prizes
