Bridge for Improvers

Sunday 4th to Friday 9th October 2026

This week is suitable for anyone wishing to improve their bridge – from recent beginners to club players.

The emphasis throughout is on learning and improving, so all play is supervised and non-competitive. Players can ask questions and your host can suggest a line of bidding or play.

Supervised play will be Chicago style. The bidding and play are identical to duplicate bridge, but there is no time pressure and players can join and leave play sessions as and when they wish.

Bite sized seminars are single topic and light touch, lasting about 10-15 minutes and followed by supervised play with randomly dealt hands.

All lessons are designed to appeal to a wide range of abilities.

There are a limited number of day tickets for our Bridge for Improvers course.
