A couple of months ago ASPIRING (Des) volunteered to act as Mentor Co ordinator for the BIL

Naturally I welcomed her with open arms but then so have the members and she has been kept very busy.

She now has a list of members waiting for the opportunity for some assistance.

My members are noted for their desire to learn, they regularly attend the daily group lessons provided. To put that information to good effect though they need to have one on one assistance.

Her list includes

2 members needing assistance from an Acol player in the UK

2 members needing assistance from a 2/1 player in Canada

a member in Israel needing assistance

just the tip of the iceberg !

Do you have the time / skill needed to pass on the knowledge that can turn a learner into a player. ? If so please contact ASPIRING on BBO (leave your email address) she will send you a questionaire and before you know it will have you at work.

Have you got what it takes to join the ever growing band of BIL Honorary members (100+ now) who are doing so much to foster good bridge online. This week it has been my pleasure to add another 8 school children to a group now numbering 16 that are being tutored by one Honorary member. Another has a group of 5 x 10 year olds to mentor. These are the future .

New mentors though are assigned just one adult member - so fear not :-)

Thanks in anticipation
