| Declarer Play Foundation Mini course |
You are booking for the Declarer Play mini-course which will be held twice a week over a period of 4 weeks, with a break mid way. Each week there will be a session on Tuesday evenings (starting 7pm) and on Thursday mornings (starting 10am). The course will start on 28th July and finish on 27th August. There will be no sessions on 11/13th August.
It is intended for those who have completed the beginner's course and want a recap on their existing knowledge as well as to cover a little new ground. This would also be ideal for those attending supervised play, gentle duplicates or Richard's workshops.
The full course costs £80. If you can't attend one week thats fine - the cost will be reduced pro-rata.
It's not a problem if you wish to switch between Tuesday evenings and Thursday mornings because of other plans.
The course will be held at the clubhouse and be led by Luiz Lima.
There is no need to have a partner - but of course please feel free to invite someone along as your partner if you wish to build your partnership understanding together.

| Week 1 |
