Saturday Games - '500' - begins 6 March from 1.30 - 3.30 pm

5/2/2021

Many people have mentioned that they stay home on Saturdays and as they are not interested in sport are looking for something to do. This is an ideal time to play the card game 500!

Our first Saturday Cards session for 2021 will be on the first weekend of March (6/03/2021) from 1.30 to 3.30 pm in the U3A meeting room.

I am looking forward to seeing those participants who joined us last year and to welcoming those who have joined us this year.

Cards '500'

The card game of 500 is a simple social game to play with groups of 4 players or more.

Playing cards is a fun way of enjoying other's company without physical exertion. Our U3A group of card players has many laughs and fun at our sessions with easy to understand rules.

Players do not have to have had previous experience as you will be taught how to play by others present.

We are a friendly and welcoming group where the focus is on having fun in a mildly competi-tive environment. There is no gambling or money involved.

The game is flexible and can be configured to accommodate any number of participants. This allows for flexibility if you cannot come along on a regular basis.
