Community Outreach Programs: Bridge Ambassador, Come Play with Us, and BridgeBattle
Ready-made ACBL packets and programs teachers can use to introduce bridge to new groups and communities.
ACBL offers several ready-made programs teachers can use to introduce bridge to new audiences and communities. Each comes with a downloadable packet so you can run it with minimal setup.
- Bridge Ambassador Program — a packet for representing and promoting bridge in your community. Download the Bridge Ambassador packet (PDF)
- Come Play with Us / Spades — an introductory packet that uses a familiar card game as a bridge on-ramp for new players. Download the Come Play with Us packet (PDF)
- BridgeBattle — a fun, low-pressure competition format ideal for beginners and youth. Download the BridgeBattle flier (PDF)
To cap off a class, you can also run an End-of-Class Tournament using the packet (PDF), giving students a friendly first taste of competition. For questions about these programs, contact education@acbl.org.
