| SUPERVISED REFRESH AND PRACTICE |
 This is a Supervised session at 10:30 am on Tuesday mornings. Led by our excellent teachers, it is aimed at refreshing your knowledge on a particular topic that you may find tricky or on which you may like to refresh your memory.
21 Sept: Counting Losers in Suit Contracts (Tim)
28 Sept: Declarer Play in NT : Entries & Communication (Richard)
5 Oct: Weak Jump Overcalls (Marianne)
This is not a lesson or seminar. Before each session, you will receive notes. The 'Refresh and Practice' session will start with five minutes of Q&A (Questions and Answers) on the topic. This will be followed by the bidding and play of 12 specially prepared hands for you to practice. You do not need a partner.
These sessions will require registration: Please click the appropriate session to book by 4 pm on the day before the session.

| ONLINE SEMINAR 28th SEPT at 2pm - TIM CHANTER |
"Coping with Pre-empts" (RealBridge and Zoom)
Opposition pre-empts are very irritating - that is why the baddies make these bids
In each of the hands below, you have a decent hand, and your RHO opens 3 Spades
You would like to have opened the bidding at a low level and engaged in some bidding with partner to work out the best contract, but with so little space available that is now much harder.
What options do you consider for each hand, and what do you choose?
If you would like to attend a session reviewing your options when the opponents pre-empt and tips and helping you to judge the best action, then come along to this seminar!
