What does the course involve?
Bridge is fun, which is one of the many reasons to learn the game. It offers the suspense of poker, the cerebral qualities of chess and the excitement of athletic sports, all in a social setting where you’re a participant, not just a spectator. Bridge is social. A game of bridge involves communication and cooperation with your partner and interaction with the opponents.
