SIG: Okanagan Bridge Group
August 8, 2025, 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm
The UBCO bridge SIG met on July 4 and 25 to play on campus for the first time since the group was established. We were hosted in a room in the library, which was perfect for our needs. On both dates, there were 4 players, 2 more experienced and 2 beginners. We reviewed Stayman and Transfer conventions after a 1 No Trump bid by partner. Luckily, across the 2 dates, there were 3 hands that opened 1 No Trump, so we had opportunity to practice and solidify the conventions in memory. Following each game, was social time for catching up with friends and colleagues.
Our next date is Aug 8, 1:00-3:00 pm in the library at UBCO. We welcome newcomers. Please contact Barbara Rutherford (bjr22@telus.net) for information.
The conventions in Audrey Grant’s “Bridge at a Glance” will be used until our numbers are large enough for partnerships to be stabilized. Thereafter, partners can develop their own agreements.
