THE CLUB

You are very welcome at our club!
The STRETTONS BRIDGE CLUB meets every Thursday at 1.00 in All Stretton Village Hall for a relaxed, enjoyable and informal session of duplicate bridge.  We welcome players of all levels, including beginners, so long as you know the basics (and if you don't but would like to, see "Learning and Improving").  Feel free to bring crib notes or ask Dom or Martin for advice at any stage during the bidding or play.  No need to bring a partner - we have a host system.

Welcome to Our Club!

PARTNERS: We run a "host" system, whereby there will always be a member available to play with you even if you turn up without a partner. If you want to make use of this system, please turn up by 12:50 so that partners can be found and the director able to set up the right movement.

A friendly, informal club where some of us are beginners.

We are happy to offer advice (on request) at any stage.

If you would like to talk to someone, please contact Patricia on 07900 840614.

Or e-mail Dom (dwbridge@hotmail.co.uk) to chat about learning Bridge.
