This is a Private Forum for teachers and club owners.
This forum is for sharing best practices for managing bridge clubs of all sizes. It is also for sharing best practices for bridge teachers. This forum is not restricted to any one zone or language. Emphasis will be on business building approaches, promotion and advertising ideas, and recruiting new players / students. Hopefully we can learn from each other, answer peer questions, and avoid energy wasted on reinventing the wheel. The quality of this forum depends completely on member collaboration.
We have spent the last couple days talking about how to introduce bridge to a beginner, but now let's talk about the difference between an advanced beginner (somebody who can do well in an I/N game) vs. an intermediate (extra conventions, can do well in a true open game). Of course those 2-second definitions are subjective.
But if you had to list conventions, what conventions/treatments/systems do you think you would classify as "advanced beginner" in nature and which are more of a "intermediate" level?
For example:
- NMF
- Michael's & Unusual
- Drury variations
- Bergen Raises
- Two suited overcalls of NT openers (DONT, Capp, etc)
- Lebensohl
- Cuebidding controls
- Various X's other than basic penalty and takeout (support, responsive, etc)
- Various discarding or lead methods
- Seriously, just throw in any concepts you'd like to discuss
