* With so many of our guests still being in the early stages of their bridge journey, we recognise that some help may occasionally be required.  However, since this is a competition, there needs to be a level-playing field regarding notes and advice. You will be allowed occasional reference to your notes and you may ask for help. You will not be told what to do, nor will you be given direct advice, but you will get a pointer or two to help you find your way forward. The extent of this will be entirely at the discretion of the director.

Finally, this is the first holiday the club has organised for some years, and we are, to an extent, learning as we go.  Please bear with us, and remember that nothing is set in stone!
