So some knowledge of basic modern Acol is quite important. rnrnSociability and flexibility are also important as, from time to time, to accommodate odd numbers of players (not divisible by 4) you may be asked to play three-handed bridge or to temporarily partner with (or simply bid for) another member of the group. rn rnWe do not play Duplicate Bridge but may do so in the future if someone volunteers to run these sessions. |
