What are Bridge Boot camps?
- Elevate your bridge game to new heights. You will learn about bidding, taking tricks, defensive play and much more!
- Lead by an award-winning, certified instructor who will teach concepts (WHY) rather than rules (HOW) and help you improve your bridge game by playing hands.
- Each day's sessions will include expert presentations on bidding, play of the hand and defense. By program’s end, you will be thinking bridge.
- Explore bidding with a modern and no-nonsense approach to Standard American (& 2/1) emphasizing competitive bidding tools.
- Learn all the secrets to taking tricks on purpose and see how easy it can be to count the cards.
- Examine defensive play and learn how to read through the back of your partner's cards.
