Bridge - Set hands session(repeat)
60 Buchanan Ave
11:45 AM – 3:15 PM
Dear NBBC members - we will be repeating our "Set hands session" so you can continue to practise your understanding of playing various standard bridge hands - NT including stayman & transfers, doubles, overcalls, slams, 2C, preeempts, takeouts etc.  This is a repeat of last week's session - so if you played last week, why not come again on Monday and sit in the opposite direction to play the other hands?  The session will be scored using Compscore, and hand records will be provided.  Players must be seated by 11.45 for a 12 noon start, finishing 27 boards by 3.15pm. These times reflect the availability of our Bridge organisers, so they differ slightly from other sessions. Partners are required, so make sure you have organised a partner; use the WhatsApp Find a Bridge partner app if necessary. This session is in response to a few people who missed out on the first session and some members asking for a repeat.
