Bridge for Improvers
Bridge with Jeremy Child
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 to 15 minutes and followed by supervised play with randomly dealt hands. Topics include: Choose your contract wisely, Checkback Stayman and Fourth Suit Forcing.
Lessons are in depth and cover: two Suited Overcalls, Losing Trick Count and Puppet Stayman. They are followed by the play of set hands (with answers!) allowing you to practice what you’ve just been taught. All lessons are designed to appeal to a wide range of abilities.
