Rekindling Bridge in Schools

♠ You can help us rekindle interest in Schools bridge.  Prior to the pandemic we provided teachers and supervisors to support the establishment of bridge sessions in schools across the counties; the events of the past few years meant these sessions went into decline. 

♠ We would like to provide Taster Sessions in schools / sixth form colleges with the aim of starting a Bridge Club. We have started 5 Bridge Clubs in Schools during the 2024 / 2025. We hope to identify another 5 more schools / sixth form colleges so that we can run Taster Sessions in the Autumn Term 2025.

How you can help (1): if you have a contact in a school and/or a son or daughter, or grandson or granddaughter in a school, and would like to help identify which schools would like to have a Taster Session, then please RSVP as soon as possible to douglaswright@3countiesbridge.com.

How you can help (2): We would also like to run a course for all interested bridge players on "How to Teach Bridge in Schools". That could be you!  No previous experience required. Once again contact douglaswright@3countiesbridge.com with your interest, no matter how tentative.

 We would also like to identify any school teacher, who would like to be involved, and we provide fun evenings for school teachers.

 We hope to run the ‘How to Teach Bridge in Schools" courses in various regions.

For further details and to Register please BOOK HERE

I do hope you will consider giving us some help here. If you have any questions, please do email me, or you can call me on 07801989630

Many thanks!
