Are you ready to learn how to play? Presenting Intro to Bridge, a new interactive online course from the American Contract Bridge League.

Each class features hands-on learning with plenty of practice for your new skills. You can expect to begin playing shortly into the first lesson.

If you’re familiar with other card games like spades or war, you’re off to a good start. Both are “trick-taking” games, and so is bridge.

Intro to Bridge was developed with Patty Tucker, an ACBL Hall of Fame member and legendary bridge teacher. She is a leader in bridge education for all ages and specializes in guiding players who are just beginning.

Both Series 1 and Series 2 is an ACBL Intro to Bridge.

Series 1 starts at the very beginning with bridge basics (how you count high-card points, what’s trumping) and introduces bidding. 

Series 2 covers beginning bridge conventions, making an opening lead and what to expect at the table.

Registration is opening in September!
