| Bridge Lessons |
We are delighted to report that due to high demand for our first course of bridge lessons, we are running a second course starting in October.
The course will mirror our first one and is perfect for beginners or players with limited experience who want to build a strong foundation in bridge.
The 10-week course will be taught by our Club Captain, Mike Scott, a qualified Bridge Teacher and Associate Member of the English Bridge Teachers Association (EBTA).
♠ COURSE START: Monday 19th October 2026, 3:00pm – 5:30pm
♥ DURATION: 10 weekly lessons
♦ LOCATION: Formby Bridge Club, Dove Centre, nr Formby Station car park.
♣ COST: £80 for all 10 weeks. Refreshments will be provided at the halfway point of each lesson.
WHY THIS COURSE?
Mike will deliver a structured 10-week course that gets you to the bridge table with confidence.
What you get for £80:
♠ ✓ 25+ hours teaching from a qualified EBTA teacher
♥ ✓ Same group, same time - build friendships as you learn
♣ ✓ A little homework to reinforce the content of each lesson
BOOK YOUR PLACE
♦ NEXT STEP AFTER THE COURSE:
On completion of the course, you’re invited to our guided Monday sessions, 3pm-5:30pm in the same room. You’ll have friendly support while you settle in until such time as you’re ready to join the regular club games with confidence. Standard club table money £3.50 will be charged for the guided bridge sessions.

| Post Summer Party |
Pictured here are the helpers seen having a well deserved glass of fizz after having arrived early on Wednesday 1st July to set up the hall for the club's summer party.
Unfortunately one of the helpers couldn't be in the picture as she was on the other side of the camera. Well done Zaga for capturing everyone in perfect happy poses!
The club members had a great evening and particularly enjoyed the food provided by Gillions, whose cheesecake is beyond compare!

Please note that we have a duty of care to all of our members, so please do not come to the club to play bridge if you are feeling unwell or have a condition that could be passed on to others. Some of our members are very vulnerable and if you turn up to play and are showing signs of cold or flu like symptoms, you will be politely asked to leave.
