Read about our colour-coded open, social and rookie sections designed to suit different player stages and aspirations and Practice Play.

Our special events are listed here and you can see all sessions in our Events Calendar.

Come early to any session for a chat and please be seated 15 minutes before the start so that the director can plan the movement.

Looking for a partner?

We provide the Pianola Partner Finder service and a Partner Bulletin Board to help you advertise to find partners. If you need help with Pianola Partner-Finder, one of our members has offered to help you.

Prefer to talk with someone about possible partners? Three of our members have volunteered to help. Try calling Lynn Hamill (9913 7215), Terry Herfort (0421 920 688) or Bev Peters (9417 4166).

Practice Play sessions always welcome unpartnered players - we understand that finding a partner when you are still learning can be challenging. We also offer a Buddy Program for players looking for a friendly partner during their first games not in a Practice Play session.

Players unexpectedly without a partner and unpartnered visitors are welcome to any session marked with an asterisk - we will try (but cannot guarantee) to match you up including with those who have volunteered to be called to see if they are free to come in.  NB it is the responsibility of the walk-in person (not the director) to phone the fill-ins.

Running late?

 If you run into bad traffic you will need to ring your partner or another player to ask them to advise the director that you are coming. You can also ring the club phone 9970 6527 but it may not always be heard or answered if the club-house is busy and noisy.

Table fees

Table fees for our regular sessions is $7 for members and $12 for visitors. Members can purchase prepaid vouchers/credits at a slight discount. For special events and lessons, the table fees may be higher.

Tea, coffee and a biscuit are provided free at all sessions but meals are not generally available.

Parking and transport

Parking is generally available in the Nelson Heather Centre carpark or in adjacent streets. Parking can be more difficult for our large Wednesday and Friday afternoon sessions. Players are encouraged to car-pool with fellow players, or to consider using public transport (B-Line bus-stop at the door) or the KEORIDE service.
