'Some exciting games were played ...'

28/2/2023

It was encouraging to see newcomers at ‘Cards 500’ following the change of day from Saturday afternoon to Wednesday afternoon this year. Some exciting games were played, with one pair reportedly ‘thumping’ their opponents three times in hard fought games (all in good fun!). Marjorie came along from Cooinda on her scooter as an observer to see if she would like to play, with Jim explaining the rules to her during the games.

We will have two sessions in March – Wednesday 15th and Wednesday 29th March from 2 to 4 pm in the U3A Meeting Room.

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.
