Important – players must confirm their attendance in advance, this is so that we can select the correct movement and setup the hall appropriately.
BRIDGE ETHICS – AT THE TABLE
CALL THE DIRECTOR. Many problems that the director has to deal with are as a result of players trying to sort things out themselves. We all do things wrong at the table – we revoke, we bid out of turn etc. Many players think they know the rules. The directors do know or at least they know where to look! The director will not mind being called, but will hate having to unravel a situation caused by not being called.
Finally, do not regard an opponent calling the director as a personal slight against you. Remember that the result at your table affects the scores of everyone in the room and the director is there to ensure fairness to all.
We had been offered an opportunity to take part in a free event arranged by Andrew Robson in conjunction with RealBridge. Andrew Robson is an international player who regularly represents England, a highly regarded author and the Bridge correspondent for The Times (of London).
We organised the four sessions during March and April 2021
To review the boards played during these training sessions look under RESULTS.
