Wednesday afternoon session has changed!

The Wednesday afternoon  Bridge session has changed  and has now become a "gentle Bridge" session. It is designed to help ease the  Beginners Classes into the general Club sessions.  It started on June 4th. The learners from the Beginners Classes  make up the bulk of the players but there is also plenty of space for people who inexperienced players who consider themselves "gentle players"  and would like to join in.  You don't need a partner and the games will be played in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. We play only simple systems at these sessions.


Congratulations to Alison and Jack!

Congratulations to Alison Foster and husband Jack who celebrate their 59th Wedding Anniversary on July 9th....next year is the BIG one!


18 players attend the FINAL Intermediate Bridge Class!

Another 18  players, eager to develop their game, turned up on July 15th to the last in the series of the Intermediate Bridge Classes, which was delivered by Andy Cove, and attended by two more of Clifton's 12 EBU-trained Teachers, covering "Defending No Trump Contracts". After the session the Teachers received a HUGE round of applause from the students with many commenting on how much their game had improved as a result of the course.
