| Beginner Game with Instruction |
Our Beginner Games are designed for players who are just starting to compete in duplicate games and enjoy a slower pace and competition with players at their level. We only play 12 boards and after each board, our director/instructor, Mike Smith, discusses what you should have bid and what you could have made. It is a beautiful combination of playing and learning.

| Beginner Lessons |
Tucson Charity Bridge Club is sponsoring a
series of bridge lessons for students with no experience or novice
players.The lessons are taught by Brian Gersten and provide a solid,
structured, foundation on which to build the student's skills. The lessons quickly,
effectively, and efficiently give the student with no experience the ability to
play this challenging game with family and friends through the first two
sequential courses of six lessons. For the novice or rusty bridge player, the
lessons will reestablish understanding of basic bridge bidding and play. A
third course builds on the bidding skills learned in the first course. For
