To help schools to introduce MiniBridge, EBU has put together a MiniBridge Pack that can be used even by school teachers who are not card players.

It contains all you need to get going, including:

• a full description of MiniBridge
• a Teacher’s Manual which gives a step-by-step guide to introducing the game. The manual includes ideas for how the game may be used in the classroom to develop a range of specific skills
• The MiniBridge software is FREE to download from the Blue Chip Bridge website. Click here to go to the site. Scroll down the page to the bottom to find the blue bar which says Click here to download.
• two packs of playing cards

The MiniBridge Pack is now available for just £5 inclusive of postage and packing. Ring Lisa on 01296 317217 or email Lisa to order your pack now

EBU also offers a one-day training course for those teachers who would like more practical guidance and help in understanding MiniBridge and introducing it to their pupils.

If you find that MiniBridge is successful at your school (and it is very rare for pupils not to take it up with great enthusiasm), EBU can provide on-going support to help you continue and develop bridge activities.

W e have a network of local helpers to assist with teaching, special bridge and MiniBridge competitions for schools, access to bridge stationery and equipment at discount prices and much, much more.
