0-200 Lesson & Game

The Friday morning lessons and games are intended for players who have completed beginning bridge lessons, are coming back to the game, or for those players who would like a refresher. The game begins at 9:00 AM SHARP! $10 card fee for a great game with wonderful people and good snacks!

Attendance is booming! Come and see why it’s the place to be!

Trudi and I would like to thank each and every one of you for your support of our Friday morning game. Your response and attendance is very rewarding. We appreciate you!

Have you made any New Year’s resolutions? Is one of them improving your bridge game? How do you do that? Play more often, take a lesson or two, learn a new convention, review played hands with your partner and compare to results and leads. Don’t try to do too much all at once. Pick one or two things to focus on and concentrate on those. Once you have mastered those, move on to something else. The best thing you can do for your game is to play more often. This year will offer you lots of opportunities!

We look forward to organizing our Friday morning game a bit differently so everyone will play more of the same boards. This way, even with only 15 boards per game, it is truly a duplicate experience and you will get a better idea of how you did against your competition.

No partner needed. We guarantee you will play. This is a very fun and friendly group. The more you play, the more comfortable you will become with the bidding and the play of the hand.

 MENTORED PLAY FOR OUR NEWEST BEGINNERS

0-20 Supervised Play

Wednesdays at 12:30 PM with volunteer mentors

Fee: $10

No partner required.

Prior registration is not required.

If you are a beginner in the 0-20 master point range, come join us to get quality practice time with mentors on hand to help and answer your questions. If you are already attending Tuesday mornings and/or Friday mornings, add another time slot and get more play time! This is a fun-filled no-stress place to practice!

We award Masterpoints, so please arrive with time to spare and stay to play for 12 to 15 boards which can run until approximately 3:15 – 4 PM. Late arrival makes it challenging for us to arrange the table movement and partnerships, so try to be there with time to spare. This is a learning game where you can practice with volunteer mentors at the tables. Masterpoints are awarded to the top scorers.

The class on April 9 has been cancelled so the class will continue from April 16 to May 28.
