Rolfe, Kathy

She comes from a long history of social bridge before she took up duplicate and so has a real grasp of what it takes to move from social bridge to duplicate. She also started by teaching bridge to youth and then moved on to teach adults, so her passion for introducing youth to the game is present at all times!
