Hand and Foot is a card game for four players, two sets of partners to a table. A Hand is 11 cards and a Foot is 11 cards. Players must both play their Hand before they can play their Foot. The game is won by the partners when one has played his/her Foot and the other agrees to go out. (In addition to registration, players need to sign up with the coordinator each week in order to coordinate the correct number of players.) Tables will be determined by "lottery draw" at each gathering to ensure the opportunity for all to play with various participants.

Instructor(s):

You've been asking for it…. So this session we will be adding a Duplicate Bridge group. Join this group for some fun and socializing playing this popular version of bridge. It is called duplicate because the same bridge hand (i.e. arrangement of cards) is duplicated at other tables, in order to allow a fair comparison of playing skill and reduce "luck of the cards".  *No play Oct. 14 so all may participate in Game Day.
