Course programme

We begin by looking at what we should know already and then move on to looking at when to use Blackwood or cue bids and how to combine both. We will also develop our use of doubles beyond the simple takeout double by looking at the sputnik and responsive doubles.

Teaching methods include prepared hands to play; Q & A; quizzes and recapitulation. All handouts will be provided including worksheets for optional homework practice.
