Table Etiquette

Club Table Etiquette

We all come to play Bridge in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere so -

Please

  • Be a good host or guest at the table
  • Stop discussing previous hands in order to greet your opponents at the start of the round
  • Give credit for good play or defence
  • Avoid criticism of other’s play
  • Give credit for good declarer play or defence
  • Don’t give unasked for tuition or triumphant explanation
  • Remember calling “Director Please” is a helpful, not critical action
  • Try not to let adjacent tables hear details of cards or play
  • Move promptly when the Director calls for the move
  • Silence your mobile (use vibrate)

We hope you enjoy your time at the club

Congratulations to the winners of this year's teams event:
Clare Batten, Ewa Hardwick, Maciej Lejman and Jonathan Jacobs.
(We finished just in time for Ewa to rush off to the Jools Holland concert but no time for the photo.)

Everyone went home with Master Points and full with an excellent tea.

Mugs

You may only dream of winning a cup

but you can hold one of these Nottingham Bridge Club mugs and make yourself a nice cuppa in our kitchen.  Try the mild coffee blend, a decaf (coffee or tea) or an occasional hot chocolate treat.

                         

Or if the bar is open look what we've got in our range of soft drinks, alcoholic, low alcohol and no alcohol as well as a wide selection of crisp flavours - all at the lowest prices you will find anywhere

New from our chiller - genuine Italian Peroni, and coming soon Red Bull, and watch out for the arrival of the Christmas Prosecco and special offers during the festive season
