bridge lessons with Barbara Travis

High profile bridge player from Adelaide, Barbara Travis, gave two lessons to our members and other interested players.
She was sponsored by the SABF which is keen to promote bridge in country areas.

We all benefited enormously from her enthusiasm and energy - watch out for a rash of negative doubles in ensuing weeks!



Here we are counting intently on the practice hands.
