Acol vs Standard American Live Online Workshops

Thursday 8 May 2025 | Two times, same workshop

Join Joan for a live online workshop in May to discuss Acol and Standard American bidding systems. Although Acol is primarily played in the UK and New Zealand, many players across the world come across people who play one or both systems. 

While both bidding systems share many similarities, they also have key differences that impact how you bid and play the game. 

Understanding the similarities and differences between these two systems will help you better adapt communication with partner and improve your confidence, no matter which system you use.
