New /Double Dummy/ movie
The bridge documentary /Double Dummy/ has been re-cutinto a tight and
gripping story about the American youth team competing for gold medals
in China.
We have a wonderful opportunity to see the virtual premiere of the new
Double Dummy starting September 29 free for 48 hours. Here's a link to
catch the premiere <https://watch.showandtell.film/watch/acbl-free>.
The movie will continue to be available after October 1st as a fund
raiser for the ACBL Educational Foundation.

ACBL Intro to Bridge
The ACBL has developed a beginning bridge program to introduce new
players to the game. The course was developed with Hall of Fame teacher
and Grand Life Master Patty Tucker from Atlanta.
The one thing missing from the new program was a course schedule
friendly to West Coast students.
I've been drafted to teach the course on *Wednesday evenings at 6:30
p.m.* starting October 6.
If you have friends who've thought about learning to play our fabulous
game, let them know about the program! Here's a link with all the
information <https://acbl.org/portfolio/intro-to-bridge/> and how to
register for the course.
Bridge for Kids
ACBL Educational Foundation working with Seattle's excellent Bridge for
Youth program is taking their online bridge program for kids national
with BridgeWhiz. They have around 1,500 kids enrolled already in this
free program!
I'm working with the team as Coach Mojo, and hoping to get started with
my own group this October. This might be my most challenging teaching
engagement so far!
If you know a kid who might want to give bridge a try, here's the link
with information
<https://www.acbleducationalfoundation.org/page/bridgewhiz-online-bridge-les…>
and a registration form. This is for kids in grade 4-12, and it's a
20-week free online program.

Virtual Bridge Games
Since teaming up with Paula Olivares, our virtual bridge club continues
to offer great games on Bridge Base Online (BBO). Paula has been
managing the Unit 556 + PPD <https://bridgemojo.com/unit556> club since
June. I'll be returning to give her a break from managing the club for
the last quarter of 2021.
For newer players, there's theAll Western 99er Nite Club
<https://www.bridgewebs.com/desertcities/99er%20NiteClub%200-20%20flyer.pdf>
(PDF) with games Monday through Thursday at 6:30 p.m. Pacific time.
These quick 12 board games are followed by a Zoom meeting to go over
hands with great teachers from up and down the West Coast.
I'll be jumping in to direct and run the postmortem on occasional
Thursday evenings.
Grab your favorite partner and play some bridge!
Best regards,
Mojo, Jane, and Dragon
