On 23 June, we are starting an exciting new weekly session at 10:30 am on Tuesday mornings called ‘Refresh and Practice’. Each session, which will be led by our excellent teachers, 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.

It is not a lesson or seminar. Before each session, you will receive notes on the particular topic for the week which you can read at your leisure before the actual session.

The 'Refresh and Practice' session will start with five minutes of Q&A (Questions and Answers) on the topic of the week.

This will then be followed by the bidding and play of 10 specially selected, pre-prepared hands on the topic for you to practice. All in all, the session should last between 90 minutes and 2 hours and will cost £7.

You do not need a partner. We will help to make up tables based on the registrations received and will look to have hosts available. The schedule for the next 4 weeks is as follows:

• 7 July   Defence – Opening leads against NT  ( Marianne ) 
• 14 July  Pre-emptive openings and responding to pre-emptive bids by partner (Richard) 
• 21 July Defending pre-emptive bids (Tim)              

We look forward to seeing you 'Refresh and Practice' your bridge skills. These sessions will require registration:  Please click the appropriate session to book     

Continuing the series of Tuesday afternoon seminars, followed by BBO play and review of topical boards, Tim Chanter will be running further sessions.  The cost is £15 and will run from 2.30 pm to 5.00 pm.  Each one is limited to 16 people, but will be repeated if there is sufficient interest. Please transfer funds into the Richmond bank account:  Richmond Bridge Club: Santander Bank   Acc 27195707   Sort 09-01-55

July 7 . Competitive Doubles:  as well as an initial take-out double, competitive doubles can be used to great effect further into the auction.  In this seminar, we discuss negative doubles, responsive doubles and reopening doubles, then practice hands on this theme.

July 21.  Multi 2 Diamonds:  this colourful convention uses an opening 2 Diamonds bid for several purposes, freeing up other 2 level bids for different meanings.  In this seminar, we discuss the Multi 2 Diamond opening bid, and how to defend against it.
