The Laws of Duplicate Bridge are dense reading, even for experienced directors, and harder still for anyone newer to the game. So we’ve reworded all 93 Laws into plainer English. The meaning is the same throughout; the Laws are simply easier to read and apply at the table.
Each Law shows the key wording changes side by side with the current official text, followed by the whole Law in full. A free PDF of the complete everyday-language version is there to download too.
We’re thinking of folding this version into the IBEScore app, alongside the current text, and we’d love your thoughts first: what reads well, what could be clearer, and any improvements you’d suggest.
