| WEDNESDAY BRIDGE |
For a trial period commencing on 7th September and running until the end of this year a host will be available so you will be sure to get a game if you come to this session without a partner before 1:10 p.m.. The intention is for this to be a friendly session with a ten minute break during the afternoon but with a guaranteed latest finish time of 16.45 (some boards may have to be “skipped” to achieve this).
There is also the option for groups of 4 fledglings to attend the Wednesday session to practice by playing the boards being played in the competition, but as a separate table from the actual competition. Please discuss with Terry at the lessons.

Robin has produced plenty of material for the website, including one on Splinter bids, Gambling 3NT, CRO, Redoubles, Trial Bids, Jacoby and his all time most read page on McKenny signals and Discards.
Summary of his latest lessons along with some of Steve and Jan's pictures can be seen here with links to the individual lessons.

A beginner's course is running, very few pupils so timing to suit pupils. Please contact Ann (01785 822233) if you would like to join the group,

| Results when events are not scored on ScoreBridge |
Since the club reopened after Covid and particularly during the hot spell in July there have been some sessions where the attendance has been low so some improvised team games have been played. The results have been posted on the website on the "Recent Competitions" page for the sake of completeness. From mid July 2022 some experimentation with better ways to show the results, not yet perfected as of 24/7/22! A brief ad hoc result has been posted for these sessions in the normal results calendar, this can be viewed in the "classic" style of BridgeWebs release 2.19q only.
