Thursday's Supervised Bridge

What started out slowly as an experiment to improve all levels of players, quickly grew into a staple of a lot of player's weekly routines.

From 10:00 to 12:00, anywhere from 12 to 25 tables get supervised from some of JHB's top players. 

The Links owes a debt of gratitude to all of the valuable supervisors, without whom this popular session wouldn't be possible: 

  Neville Eber  

  Bernard Donde  

  Val Bloom  

  Tas Nestoridis  

  James Grant  

  Lotte Sorensen  

  Di Balkin
