| Barnet's Seminar - A Resounding Success! |
Approximately 40 people attended and thoroughly enjoyed Saturday's seminar led by Barnet Shenkin.
For many of us it was a revelation and offered a completely different approach to thinking about how to play hands. Unlike conventional teaching, Barnet encouraged us to think about the 52 cards in the pack and work out based on the bidding and leads where the cards were likely to be and how to change our plan as the play developed. He showed us how to make what seemed like unmake-able contracts make! We learnt about "Empty Spaces" and "The Dentist's Coup" amongst other valuable tips. He even told us to forget many of the lessons we learnt as Beginners as we move on to be more experienced players.
Mixed in was a number of very amusing stories about world class players which had us all chuckling.
The feedback has been Excellent so if you want a place at April's seminar, book now before it's oversubscribed!

| Could you teach Bridge? |

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!
