♠ ♥ Workshop – Playing in Teams ♦ ♣
TUTOR: John Di Mambro
This year’s excitement for the Leagues is contagious!
We have many divisions ready to compete, and for those of you who are new to this type of play, help is at hand.
Since the League kicks off in September, we’re bringing this workshop forward so you can step into the competition with confidence.
About the Workshop
This specially designed session will focus on the skills and tactics needed for team events, helping you boost both your play and results. The morning will start with an interactive lecture, followed by playing a set of linked, pre-dealt boards. You’ll also receive worksheets to complete during the workshop and have plenty of time to ask questions.
Topics include:
- Tactics to improve your results in team events
- Building stronger partnership understanding
- The importance of convention cards
- Sharpening your defence skills
Cost: £15 (includes tea/coffee)
Places: Limited to 24 participants — We may repeat the workshop if demand is high. Fill in the form if you remain interested.
Tip: It’s ideal (though not essential) to attend with your regular partner
