LEARNING BRIDGE IN SCOTLAND
Learning Bridge with the Scottish Bridge Union is very rewarding - whether you wish to learn to play face to face at a Bridge Club or online, we have a solution for you!
Learning face to face at a local Bridge Club provides a more rounded experience.
Face to Face Lessons are available throughout Scotland.
For those unable to attend locally there is the less sociable option of online lessons.

TEACHING BRIDGE IN SCOTLAND
Schools Bridge
The preferred method of teaching bridge in schools is through the Minibridge Course.
Teaching Resources
Information for teachers of the SBU 20 week course.
There are 2 excellent resources specifically for those attending Beginners' Classes. The material is based on the content of the SBU 20 lessons.
BridgeTrainer allows you to select specific lessons from 1 to 20 and provides the hands for you to practice bidding & responding. Whether you have bid correctly or not, each attempt is followed by an explanatory note. There is no option for playing the hands.
Shark Bridge allows you to select hands from lessons 4 to 20 below which you can bid then play against robots without downloading the app. There is no teaching.
The most beneficial way to use these 2 sites would be to learn the bidding on BridgeTrainer then follow up by practicing the play on Shark Bridge.
