We start at the beginning and no previous knowledge of the game is expected.
We learn a simple bidding system and the emphasis will be on enjoyment as opposed to serious competition.
By the end of the first lesson you will have played a form of Bridge!
You will already have some idea of what bridge is about.
We start by revising the principles of
basic Acol and then go on to the various conventions such as
Stayman, Transfers, Keycard Blackwood etc.
Many people who have taken the
Beginners course the previous year join this group and once again the emphasis is on the enjoyment of the game.
This is a friendly group playing Rubber Bridge in an informal atmosphere. The accent is on playing among friends rather than on fierce competition.
Our Members say:
“My wife told me I had to come to these sessions and she is always right!
I’ve really enjoyed them and never like to miss a single one”.
“An excellent teacher who brings the game of Bridge alive.”
“We are a group of 4 ladies who started with absolutely no knowledge in the beginner’s class and have now progressed to Improvers
The lessons are instructive and great fun and we feel that we’re keeping ‘the little grey cells alive’.”

A way of learning and
meeting some very nice people.”

as he is brilliant.”
