Northern Ireland Bridge Union

Alan Hill is running a refresher course on the rules of bridge on Sunday 28th August at 2.30pm. The venue is Kelvin Malone Bridge Centre. The course is open to everyone at all levels but maybe of particular help to both current and those who would like to be tournament directors.

As we return to face to face bridge many of us have forgotten about leads out of turn & revokes etc while playing online. Alan intends going over all the basic situations and will be happy to answer questions. If you are hoping to attend please let Alan know at clubanddiamond@yahoo.co.uk.

Here is a book for players who like a relaxing approach to playing bridge at home. The book is available on Amazon or directly from the author at jstreeten@clara.co.uk.

The Annual General Meeting of the NIBU was held on Sunday July 3rd at 2.30 pm at Kelvin and Malone Bridge Centre.
