Entry fee structure explained: All players, regardless of skill, can choose to play for free for as long as they like. We offer an optional entry fee of $10 that allows players to support the club and also be eligible for the prize pool. We have gift cards available for free players who place or win the tournament. The free option is a great way to try out the club and meet other players, without any risk. Either way we encourage all our players to support our venue by ordering food and drink!
Social BackgammonIn addition to our Monday and Thursday club nights we have regular social backgammon. This is perfect for someone who is new to the game or for experienced players who just want to relax in a more social atmosphere.
