Rhode Island Bridge Association

 

Club Visits / Mentoring Program

 

 

To encourage less experienced players to come and learn more about bridge, the Rhode Island Bridge Association has initiated a Club Visit / Mentoring Program in which players can come to local games to play and learn from more experienced players.  

 

Members of the RIBA Board of Directors will be available to discuss any issues, suggestions, or ideas that you may have concerning the association.  We encourage members to attend and discuss any topic they feel is related to the successful operation of the association and promoting the game of contract bridge.

 

Currently there are mentoring programs at the Bridge Club of Rhode Island Bridge, the Narragansett Bridge Club and the South County Bridge Club.  The Bridge Club of Rhode sponsors a mentoring night on the first Thursday of every month.   The Narragansett Bridge Club has a mentoring game on the 3rd Monday of alternate months – December, February, April, June, and August.  The South County Bridge Club has a mentoring game on the 3rd Thursday of alternate months – January, March, May, July, and September.

 

If you wish to play with a mentor you should sign up in advance of the game with a mentor.  Accommodations will be made at game time if a mentor is available.
