☕ Saturday Morning Bridge – Come and Join Us! ❤️

A little plea to our members!

Please come along this Saturday morning and support our new tournament. This is a trial, and if it proves popular, we hope to make it a regular feature during the winter months.

Georgina will be your TD this Saturday, so I'd love to see a good turnout. After all, I don't want to drag myself out of bed early on a Saturday morning just to find myself playing in an empty room! 😂

We'll play 21–24 boards in a relaxed, informal and friendly atmosphere. Everyone is welcome, so don't be put off if you're not a regular tournament player.

I promise you'll enjoy it — good bridge, good company and a lovely way to start your Saturday.

Please come along and give it a go. Let's make this a success together!

❤️ Georgina



Yes it's that time already! We're getting ready for our Xmas party.   We can promise you that the buffet will be plentiful, the drink free flowing and the Bridge - well that's up to you!

♥ No Fear Tournament♦ 
THURSDAY 7pm

The No Fear Tournament is designed for players who have completed the Beginners’ course.   It provides the ideal platform allowing you to put into practice, what you have learned in a friendly, supportive tournament setting. The other players will, like you, be near the beginning of their Bridge journey.
During this tournament you will:

♠ experience how a tournament is run

♥ learn to manage your time while playing a full set of boards

♦ understand the role of the Tournament Director (TD)

♣ become familiar with basic tournament etiquette, including:

                             
1. what happens if someone leads out of turn
                             
2. the consequences of a revoke
                             3. when a card is considered "in play"
                           
 4. taking a card back or changing your mind

The tournament will introduce you to playing social and competitive Bridge in a structured environment, typically over 18–21 boards. 
At the end of the evening:

♠ results will be presented

♥ you will receive a hand record of all boards played

You will also be given the recommended auction for each board, the correct lead, and a commentary highlighting key boards, especially those involving competitive auctions or complex decisions.
