Learn Bridge now

Bridge lessons are being provided by the Noosa Bridge Club beginning 6 September for eight weeks. This is a twice yearly offering, held in the clubrooms at 3 Wallace Street, Noosaville.

Bridge is more than just a card game as it keeps your memory active and your brain alert, confirming the old saying “use it or lose it’. Bridge is also a game for any age, all generations from six to 106 can play together and these days bridge is attracting a younger audience as during the pandemic many people in their twenties and thirties have started learning and playing online.

So don’t wait till you retire before learning as committee member Julie Scott says “everyone wishes they had started playing bridge earlier”. There is a Saturday session available for the weekday workers.

Billionaire investor and philanthropist Warren Buffett has a reputation of a die-hard player and has been quoted as saying “Bridge is such a sensational game that I wouldn’t mind being in jail if I had three cellmates who were decent players”.

Once the basic skills have been mastered, we have a number of competitions available such as the recent Novice Congress where players of the same ability compete in a friendly atmosphere.

The eight week course begins Tuesday 6 September from 1-3pm. Cost is $80 which includes a copy of Paul Marston’s “Introduction to Bridge”. This beginner’s course will cover all the basic concepts of bridge and includes sessions of supervised play where your teacher will be available for help.
