About this Education Seminar

Partnership Document by Jake Andrew (suitable for experienced players)

An ABF system card is just the bare bones - that which you are required disclose. A winning edge comes from a comprehensive partnership document. This practical workshop guides you through why, when, and how to build a bulletproof system file. Learn efficient bidding notation, logical structure, and easy principles to keep you and your partner on the same page. Minimise misunderstandings and keep a happy partnership.

Key takeaways:

Why an ABF card isn't enough for pairs wanting to improve;
Step-by-step layout for a clean partnership system document;
Bidding notation shorthand to save time and prevent confusion.
