GENERAL

The American Contract Bridge League (ACBL) is the organization that oversees competitive duplicate bridge in North America.  Its webpage on convention cards has several useful items.  There is a pdf file of a blank convention card; a filled out card with a very basic bidding system; a filled out card for Standard American Yellow Card (SAYC), a slightly more complex system; a booklet describing SAYC; and a description of Bridge Bulletin Standard (BBS), a bidding system used in bidding contests in the ACBL Bulletin.  BBS is a bit more complex than SAYC but less complex than a full-blown 2/1 system.

The webpage on convention cards also has links to Conventional Wisdom and Conventional Wisdom Lite, two series of articles on what different parts of the convention card mean and how to fill them out, as well as the  Bidding Toolkit, a list of common conventions with explanations.
