Learn to Play Bridge

Year 1, Term 1 of our 30-week course (3 x 10 week terms) for complete beginners, starts at the beginning of October 2023. 

The course is based on the 'Bridge for All' programme developed by the English Bridge Union (EBU) and provides a complete learn and play system. The programme is based on the Acol bidding system. The beginners' course starts out by assuming no previous knowledge of cards whatsoever, although it is also suitable for anyone who has played a little Bridge with friends and wants to improve their bidding and card play. 

All of our 'Bridge for All' teachers have been trained to teach the course according the EBU standards. They are members of the EBU Teachers’ Association (EBTA), which provides all the training needed to be a successful teacher. 

All teaching materials and student notes are included in the course fee. 

As a bonus, all 'Bridge for All' students get free membership of Oxford Bridge Club for the years that they are students.
