Bidding & Play Workshops
These sessions are aimed at players who understand the basics of bridge and wish to continue revising and practicing while pushing the boundaries a little further. They are often themed around a play or bidding topic with the hands taken from recent RBC duplicate sessions.
Workshops involve up to 12 boards, with all tables playing the same boards at the same time. Players will move to meet new opponents in each round and a generous amount of time is allowed for each board. Hand commentaries are provided afterwards. Players are welcome to turn up on their own or together with their partner - there is no need to pre-book. Non-members are welcome.
Workshops are held at the clubhouse on:
- Monday at 7:30pm
- Wednesday at 10:00am

These relaxed, concise, online sessions are aimed at players who want to put into practice what they have learnt. The sessions are both friendly and competitive, and comprise 5 rounds of 2 boards (10 boards in total). Pairs usually play different opponents each round with ample time given to complete each round. Sessions are usually completed by 6.45pm.
No special software is needed and single players are welcome (we have a number of hosts on stand by). Links to join these sessions are found on the homepage of the RBC website - look for the 'RealBridge Links' in the right hand column.
