GRP BRDG1 Beginners Bridge

As from Sept 2026

There will be two sessions running one after the other. The first  session (1.30 - 3.00) is for players who want to learn bridge from square 1.

You don’t need to know anything about the game (other than it could take a couple of years to achieve a reasonable level of competence). Although bridge is played with a partner, you don’t need a partner for these initial sessions. However in order that we have a cohesive group of learners you will need some experience of having played cards in the past. A good prerequisite is experience of playing whist or solo.

The second session (3.00 - 5.00) is for improvers - namely those that have spent this year (2025/6) learning the game or those that have a basic knowlegde that needs refreshing.

In order to succeed in either group:

You will need to be able to commit regularly

You will need perseverance

You will need a good memory

You must be prepared to learn from your mistakes

Bridge is a great card game but takes time and practice to achieve reasonable mastery. These sessions will hopefully set you off en route.
