| New to Bridge (or Duplicate Bridge)? |
If you've never played bridge before, we'd like to show you why we love it. With advance notice (use Contact Us), we can provide a mini-lesson before the Thursday night unit game to introduce you to the game. If you've played rubber bridge but haven't played duplicate bridge then you're ready for our 0-20 Newcomer Game. If you'd like a one-on-one explanation of how duplicate bridge works before you play, let us know in advance (use Contact Us) and we'll arrange for someone to help you.
