| NEW GENTLE DUPLICATE BRIDGE (GDB) |
Rugby Bridge Club is pleased to inform our members that we are now including a new session into our weekly timetable. We all understand that transitioning to main club sessions can be daunting and this is where Gentle Duplicate Bridge (GDB) can help. Not only in assisting with bidding and card play, but also in understanding the etiquette and laws of game play. It is a recognized method used by the EBU and other Clubs.
Venue: at Dunchurch Sports and Village Hall
Day /Time: Tuesdays 10 am to 12:00 noon
Start Date: 2nd September 2025
How will the session be conducted to support you? The aim is for each table to have a mentor assisting the players and is very much targeted at those players transitioning from the classroom and/or those that appreciate the opportunity to have guidance whilst playing. It will be a 12-board session.
How to book in? Our first session will start on Tuesday the 2nd September and we ask members to book in as you would normally do for a club session. If you do not have a partner, that is not a problem, just book in as a single and a partner will be found or a mentor will partner you.
We do hope that you will support this very valuable addition to our club timetable.
