Learning Opportunities

Know someone plays bridge at home and might want to learn Duplicate Bridge?  Have them join the New2Duplicate event on Saturday, February 15th 8:30 – 10 AM.  Know someone who wants to learn bridge?  We will have one or two New2Bridge events (stay tuned) or come to our Saturday Supervised Game (10 AM – Noon) to learn more. 

We have great teachers with lessons available this winter.  Check out the Unit Website at http://www.cincybridge.com for more details.  Many clubs offer free pre-game seminars - Tuesday evening (6:30 PM) and Fri Morning (10:30 AM) at the CBC and Thursday AM (10:45 AM) at NKy Elsmere (see the NKy Website for schedule and details).

Want Bigger and Better Club Games?
It’s more fun to play when there’s more people. Here are 3 things you can do immediately to have bigger and better club games:

1)      Play one or two more games each month,

2)      bring your friends to play,  and

3)      play with someone new!

Know somebody who wants to play but needs a partner?  Do you need a partner?  Contact Chris Hastie cwadehastie@gmail.com - (513) 793-1475 or Joanne Earls jolman@fuse.net - (513) 772-4395 - they can help arrange a partner.  

Club directors will often help find partners for players given enough advance notice.

Help Grow our Game!
Have an idea how to get more bridge players playing more club games? Share your thoughts with any member of the Unit 124 Board of Directors or your Club Game Director.
