The No Fear group held its third Back to Basics evening, with 48 players attending a brilliant seminar delivered by Frances McKeown. We are very grateful to Frances, who spoke  for over an hour and a half, keeping everyone engaged throughout.
As the focus was on learning and revision, players completed just five rounds of two boards, so there were no N/S or E/W winners on the night.   
The feedback has been extremely positive, with many asking if we could run it again. Perhaps we will revisit it in a few months.
Back to Basics evenings are a great reminder of all those small but important details that are easy to forget. Often it’s not the complicated conventions — just the simple things that slip the mind.
All in all, a very successful and enjoyable evening.

We will be celebrating our 1st Birthday with a special party on Saturday 16th May. Mark the date in your diary and keep it free. More information to follow.

Friday mornings are growing in popularity as word spreads that there are worse ways to spend a morning than playing Bridge in a relaxed atmosphere, enjoying a social chat with friends old and new, and enjoying Tea and crumpets in a short break. Come along and see for yourself.

The Club hosted a second Under 21 training session on Sunday January 25^th which proved a great success.  The smiling faces say it all! The feedback was very positive and a third session has been organised for the 29th  March. Ten of the squad who will be representing Scotland in the forthcoming Peggy Bayer international, held this year in Scotland, too part in Sunday's training session.  We wish them well!

Angus MacDonald will be holding a Tournament Director’s course on Saturday,18 April from 10 to 4. There is a nominal charge in the region of £10 depending on the number of attendees.  For those who wish to take part but cannot attend, Angus is running a similar course at the Prestwick Bridge Club on 7 March but places will be limited.  For those wishing to attend what will be a very instructive session, please contact Alan L.

You don’t have to be an expert to teach Beginners to play Bridge!
Possibly a back ground in teaching is more helpful! After all you didn’t need a degree in Astronomy to teach about the Solar System!

Over the past year, the Scottish Bridge Union (SBU) has made exciting strides in developing Youth Bridge across the country. As their initiatives grow, so does the need for a committed and collaborative team to help them deliver even more impact. They’re now recruiting volunteers to take on key roles within the Youth Bridge programme. If you're organised, enthusiastic, and eager to make a difference in young people's lives through bridge, please contact OpsCoordinator@sbu.org.uk
