SESSION ONE

Session One is for the beginner who has never played or a beginner who is rusty and wants to start playing again. In Session One more emphasis is placed on the ”how to”, or the mechanics of Bridge rather than on the “why” or the strategy of Bridge.
The Mid Term and Final Exam are excellent tools that review and concretize many Bridge concepts. Session One can be used as a self-learning guide or a handy reference tool.

    "Bridge is too important
      to take seriously."
                              Oscar Wilde
