| Newent Bridge Club, Gloucestershire |
 |
We meet twice a week on Wednesdays and Fridays at Newent Community School.
Play starts at 7.00pm on both evenings. Please be seated by 6.50pm to give the Directors time to arrange the movement and still start on time.
Wednesday is a competitive evening and you must come with a partner. Friday is a hosted evening and is more relaxed. There are two Friday duplicate sessions running at the same time. One is gentle bridge with fewer hands and no masterpoints.
Visitors and any players wishing to join the club are always very welcome.

| Gentle Bridge on Fridays - All Welcome |
We now have 2 duplicate bridge sessions on Friday evenings. One for more competitive players with Masterpoints being awarded, and the other, Gentle Bridge, for those members and visitors who want to play a more social game of bridge.
Gentle Bridge is a way for learners to start playing duplicate bridge with a limited number of boards, advice and guidance is available from an experienced player when needed. We play 15- 20 boards per session using standard ACOL (with a few simple variations), Masterpoints are not awarded.
Club members may also play in the Gentle Bridge session and are encouraged to bring along any friends who they feel might enjoy playing in such a session. This session is hosted so there is no need to bring your own partner.
