Peninsula Bridge Club, an ABF Accredited Teaching club, will help you. We focus both on beginners and on those already on this lifelong learning path. You don't need to be a member to learn with us but members do enjoy reduced fees. We hope you will play with us afterwards.
Beginner courses (also for those seeking to refresh what they learned at this stage):
These courses are taken by Peninsula's Australian Bridge Federation accredited teachers, who are skilled in assessing ability of the particular class. They consist of 4 lessons followed by an included hands on Practice Play session. Lessons are structured and paced according to need, within a supportive small group setting, where everyone will be a beginner. No partner is required. These hands-on lessons will introduce the basics of bridge, its bidding language and playing strategies. The course cost is only $100 and includes text book and weekly notes.
The beginner classes will be held on Monday and Wednesday mornings and Monday evenings, depending on learners' preferences.
If you, a friend or a family member are interested in learning, please complete the Want to Learn form or email Helen Griplas at
For Improvers and Intermediate/more advanced:
Peninsula Bridge Club also offers small group tailored sessions 'on demand' as well as the occasional larger format workshop or lesson series. You will learn with an ABF Accredited Teacher and the cost will include notes - join us and bring your friends and partners to enjoy it even more.
To get started simply tell us what you want in this short Want to Learn More form, and we will get back to you. This will allow you to suggest topics your are interested in and ensure you receive notifications of upcoming possible lessons that you can book. And check our current lessons accepting bookings to see if one of these suits you.
Feedback from recent students:
"Just a quick thank you, Cath, for a fabulous lesson today. It was great to come together and was thoroughly enjoyable. I did love your story of the BBO game played with a grandchild on your lap!" - Bronwyn Neal, 3 Dec 2020
"Thanks for the wonderful online bridge classes last year. Each week David took us through either one or two aspects of the game, together with a practice session which was really useful. I particularly liked the fact that we could talk via WhatsApp and play practice hands on BBO at the same time." - Pauline Kingsford-Smith, 18 Jan 2021
