Bridge Tuition
Beginner Course
Beginner Course

For newcomers to the game we offer a formal three term course (3 x 10 lessons) called Beginning Bridge.

The course follows the English Bridge Union’s recommended national learning programme from Bridge For All. This is a traditional structured method aiming to have you enjoying playing right from the first lesson. The course runs at a steady but comfortable pace allowing you plenty of time to digest each topic. The first lesson is a free 'taster' lesson and thereafter course fees include ‘Beginning Bridge’ (an excellent reference and course book), English Bridge Union membership and membership for one year of Upminster & Cranham Bridge Club.

Beginners courses start at the beginning of each year and take place on Friday afernoons at Cranham Social Hall. Courses may be run elsewhere and at other times subject to demand.

If paid in advance the cost is £275 for the full course. Fees may alternatively be paid termly, in this case the first term costs £125 and the 2nd and 3rd terms are £90 each.
