Sun Lakes Duplicate Bridge Intermediate/Novice
Come one, come all!
The Sun Lakes Duplicate Bridge Club has a group for everybody who likes to play duplicate bridge! Beginners, advanced beginners, social bridge players learning duplicate bridge, former players, just-finished-the-classes players and even rusty players are invited and encouraged to attend the Thursday morning duplicate bridge group that meets at 8:15 a.m. at Risen Savior Lutheran Church, 23914 S. Alma School Road. A short lesson is presented followed by two hours of playing bridge hands. During the game, instructors are available to answer questions and help with the bidding process. The game is friendly, non-competitive and welcoming for players at the beginning level. If you don’t have a partner, it doesn’t matter – one will be found for you. Beginning bridge is a great way to meet new people and keep your brain cells young! Experienced players must have less than 99 master points to participate in the Thursday morning group. The cost is $6 for members of the Bridge Club and $7 for non-members. If you like bridge, joining the Sun Lakes Bridge Club is only $10 per year. Master points are awarded to the top finishers in the Thursday morning group each week. Questions about the group can be directed to Anne Newman at [email protected].
Tuesday/Thursday Afternoon Games:
In addition to the Thursday morning session, the Sun Lakes Bridge Club offers two more opportunities for Intermediate and Novice players to play against each other. On Tuesday and Thursday afternoons at 1:30 p.m., during the regular club game, a separate game is offered for those players with less than 499 master points. Partners are required for these games, and you should arrive about 30 minutes before game time. Sun Lakes Unit 351 will always assist you if you need a partner. Contact our partnership coordinators Eileen Utter, Kay Kennedy and Carol Warner at [email protected] and provide your information. For more information on Sun Lakes bridge, check online at www.unit351.com, click the “Clubs” tab; click on “Sun Lakes” tab and you will find links for all information, schedules and results.
