♠   Tricks of the Trade Registration Form  ♣ 

Please complete form below if you wish to take part in Tricks of the Trade play on Wednesday 21st January starting at 7pm.

Topic is:
Find a Forcing Bid. Exactly what it says, for situations where you want to explore further and don’t want to make an invitational bid that risks partner passing. Examples are a new suit at the 3-level, Fourth Suit Forcing, Checkback and game tries.

 
To get the most out of these sessions, it’s best to book as a pair.  If you wish to, you can team up with another pair to reserve a table. 
If you haven’t got a partner, we suggest you advertise on the WhatsApp group – or let us know, and we may be able to find a partner for you.

Please note that the booking for this closes at midday on Tuesday 20th January
