| Learn to play Bridge at The Melville Bridge Academy |
Are you interested in learning to play Bridge?
If so, we offer a full range of classes extending over six terms (three years) which take you from absolute beginner to club player.
Our classes for the Autumn term will start the week beginning 20 September and will be delivered on-line using 'Zoom' and BBO
We also offer a Practise, Revise & Consolidate course for people who are at about lesson 40, on Tuesday evenings at 7.00 pm.
All of our classes take the form of some theory followed by card play with plenty of opportunity to ask questions. There is a quiz sheet for each lesson which is reviewed at the start of the next lesson. As well as all of the materials handed out in the classes, students will be able to download additional materials from our website.
There are ten 2-hour lessons in each 12-week term including two weeks of revision. The lessons are supported by printed material and once students reach a suitable level, special tournaments are hosted by the club to allow them to put the theory into practice.
Our lessons are taught by Scottish Bridge Union (SBU) approved teachers and follow the SBU teaching curriculum using materials created by the SBU, so you can be sure you will be learning the most modern conventions.
The class fees are £80 per term or £40 for juniors (under 26).

| Daily Social Bridge Games |
We offer daily games of Social Bridge on the RealBridge platform for use by players making up their own tables of four. There is a £2 charge for this service which has to be paid by one of the four players who acts as the Host player and who logs in using the Social Bridge Host button in our menu. Click on this article to read more about this service.
Hosts should check that the Host button shows the current date before paying as otherwise you might be playing the hands that were played the day before. Guest players can log in for free using the Social Bridge Guest button. None of the four players needs to be members of the club as no passwords are required.
After logging in to RealBridge the host can add a table if the ones showing have all been used, using the + late table button, or start off the first board for the first table by clicking on the Start round 1 button.
