Master the Basics

Thursday mornings at 9:00-9:30am

Please note that during late-December and January our teachers have a break, and these lessons are not run. Please contact the club or read the Newsletter for exact dates.

One of our ABF accredited teachers, Barbara Toohey, presents a successful series of sessions pitched at players relatively new to the game or those who wish to brush up on the basics. These half hour lessons before the Thursday morning duplicate sessions cover important play and bidding techniques. Sessions are very practical, with concepts or techniques being developed over a number of weeks.
