A "Short Club" in American 5-Card Standard bridge (and there may be other standards as well) is an opening bid which could show a hand holding as few as only 2 Clubs. It is used for an opening-point hand which does not have a five-card major, nor a 1NT point-count and distribution. The classic responses are: If played as a forcing bid (i.e., you cannot pass), with less than 6 pts, bid 1D. If not forcing with 0-5, pass. 6-9 points: Bid a four+-card major, or without a 4-card major, bid five-card diamond on the one-level (if not playing forcing), raise to 2 Clubs if holding 5+clubs or 1NT if balanced with 3+clubs and no four-card major. 10+ points: Bid a four+-card major, or without a 4-card major, bid a five-card diamond (at 1 or 2 level with interferring bid) or 2NT if balanced with 3+clubs and no four-card major. Most play "better of the minors" or "convenient minor" where, without a 5-card major, if 1 Club, is opened, it would never be as short as two: either the other minor (diamonds) will have three or more cards and/or you would have a five-card major which would be opened instead.
