Bridge for Post-Beginners

Are you a nearly-new bridge player, a not-so-nearly-new bridge player, a lapsed or rusty bridge player?

Would you like to improve your bridge? Come to our gentle Acol drive on Wednesdays at 7pm. No partner needed.  Lots of help available.

This is what the punters think:

“It’s a very friendly evening and we all learn a lot”

“A very supportive group especially for newcomers. Assistance is always given and you might even get the chance to play with one of the directors which is really helpful”

“Relaxed evening for new bridge players. Lovely people; a great learning experience”
