Our online duplicate takes place on Friday evenings at 19:00 on Bridge Base Online (BBO). The table fee is $3 for an 18-board game.
This session is shared with Seaford Bridge Club, which hosts on the first, third and fifth Fridays of the month.

Teaching and Learning
Wednesday Supervised Play
Session: 14:30–16:30
Please arrive by 14:15.
Wednesday Supervised Play is designed for Improvers and Intermediates who want to build confidence by playing alongside more experienced club players in a relaxed and supportive setting.
It is ideal for players who have attended the club’s classes and are ready to progress from structured lessons to real gameplay, without concentrating on only one aspect of technique.
Participants play a series of hands in a friendly, low-pressure environment. Guidance is available throughout on bidding and card play. Afterwards, players can compare their results with contracts reached by more experienced players and discuss different approaches.
Follow-up emails include links for replaying the hands at home, together with any briefing materials used during the session.

Although this is not a formal lesson, it provides valuable learning through practical experience, guidance and discussion.
