Interest Groups - Bridge For Improvers
Home   The U3A   Interest Groups   Newsletter   Programme   Study days   Contact Point  

We are a new Group which started just over a year ago. There are some 12 members in the Group but sometimes, because of other committments, we have only 8 members at a session.

At more formal bridge lessons, usually run by the local authority (and costing quite a lot!), there can be more than 20 in a class. So, since ours is such a relatively small and friendly Group, it is an ideal learning environment and eveyone really enjoys it.

Bridge is a pafrtnership game a bit like whist but somewhat more complicated: by "bidding" your hand, you try to reach the best "contract" ie the number of tricks you can make between you and your parner. Bridge is, arguably, the best card game in the world and is great for kjeeping the grey cells working. It is also a very pleasant social game to play with your friends. There are also a lot of bridge clubs where you can play against many other people once you have gained more experiance. So why not come and join us, beginners and improvers are all welcome.

We meet in the Reading Room in Fetcham and there are two sessions each month, on the first and third Thursday, from 14:00 to 16:00. Contact me if you want more information.
