Bulletin - Improve Your Bridge

If you've got some bridge experience and want to play and improve your game in a friendly environment, please note our 'gentle' bridge session on a Thursday from 10.30 to 12.30 might be ideal. This is designed to support players move from lessons into more competitive bridge as well as for members to have a shorter, enjoyable game.

Please come along and support everyone to become a better bridge player in a fun, social environment - you can come along to a session without booking or having a partner as we have a host system in place and you don't have to attend every week (though we'd love it if you did!).

We have also started a Hand of the Week feature on the website aimed at those wanting to improve their bridge game.

Welcome to Stannington Bridge Club

STANNINGTON BC NEWS

A very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to all members and visitors!

On Friday 20th December Dave and Jill were first again with Colin and George second and Catherine and Bob third. There were a disproportionate number of slam hands - not all easy to bid or play - and it's well worth discussing how you would bid these with your regular partner. Hands 1, 7, 12, 15, 21 and 23 are the ones to look at. Hands 16 and 20 are not great slams requiring a few well-placed cards.

If you are looking for a partner, please contact the club secretary, Colin Mitchell, on 07919 354477 or by email colin.mitchell01@btinternet.com.

If you spot a scoring mistake in any of our games, please contact the Secretary or Scorer by noon the following day.
