| CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK |
On behalf of your committee, it is with regret because of the dangers of Covid-19, we have decided, along with Government guidelines, to suspend the playing of bridge at the Winscombe Community Centre until further notice.
We will monitor the situation continuously and be in touch to let you know when we expect to resume play.

| BEST BEHAVIOUR AT BRIDGE |
Asking for explanations and not bidding.
Do not ask what a bid means unless you are intending to bid. Asking for explanation without bidding could, in certain circumstances, be construed as passing unauthorised information to one‘s partner. If one doesn‘t intend to bid, questions of the opponents, should be made after the auction has concluded.
