What is a "contract"?
A contract is the agreement made during the bidding phase that determines the objective for the hand. It specifies which suit will be the trump suit, or if there will be no trump suit at all. The contract also sets the number of tricks a partnership must win to fulfill the agreement. The declarer, chosen based on the winning bid, aims to meet the contract by winning the required number of tricks. If the declarer succeeds, their team wins points; if not, the opposing team earns points.
