Our twice monthly five hundred cards sessions are ticking along nicely, with some of our less experienced players learning to make bold and winning bids.
Our player numbers keep growing with a new member joining in August.
A suggestion has been made by one of our group that we mix up where people sit, so players are playing with different people at each session.
The advantage of this is that by players playing with and partnering different people it lifts the experience level and makes the sessions more interesting as well as providing real time mentoring.
The downside is that part of the reason why people come to play cards is the companionship they enjoy with their regular partners and team. Socialization is such an important factor to the success of the Benalla U3a programs.
The members views will be sought before we trial this change.
