Catherine Cresswell will run a briefing session at 2:30 about rubber bridge and rubber bridge scoring, on the first few Sundays, and will be on hand to help people score. THERE WILL BE CAKE.

The Monday sessions are aimed at improvers who want to gain confidence and prepare to play in club sessions. A variety of hands will be played with some analysed in more detail. It will be possible to compare how you performed with club players who played the hands previously.

The Monday sessions start on 28 April. For queries contact Trevor at trevorsmart56@hotmail.co.uk

Learn Bridge

 

We provide the most comprehensive quality bridge teaching in the area, by providing traditional beginners and fast track courses as well as improvers courses. See our lessons page. Pre-dealt hands are used in all lessons meaning the learning is mainly through playing.
