Bridge for Post-Beginners

Are you a nearly-new bridge player, a not-so-nearly-new bridge player, a lapsed or rusty bridge player?

Would you like to improve your bridge? Come to our gentle Acol drive on Wednesdays at 7pm. No partner needed.  Lots of help available.

This is what the punters think:

“It’s a very friendly evening and we all learn a lot”

“A very supportive group especially for newcomers. Assistance is always given and you might even get the chance to play with one of the directors which is really helpful”

“Relaxed evening for new bridge players. Lovely people; a great learning experience”

Have I paid my Table Fees?

To see your account at any time.

Go to the right of the home page of this web site and click on           Members Area          
On the new page that appears click on the Payments A/C tab.

(Details of your account should appear...... however ...)

If you've not used the Members Area before, ....... it's easy.
Click here to download the instructions.

You can see how to pay by clicking here. 

We have improved our processes so that the amount (under or overpaid) shown in the email should match the correct balance as at the date it is sent to you – previously it reflected table fees due but not any payments you made since the last bank statement (16^th of the month).  Hopefully this will remove any confusion.
