UPCOMING TOURNAMENTS

The organisation of our Tournaments relies on players arriving on time. Players who have not rung, and who arrive after the check in time will not be guaranteed entry to the Tournament.
All events are rated, unless stated otherwise.
All rated tournaments use the updated Collins Scrabble Words 2015 as the sole adjudication reference.
Juniors are players aged Under 18 years.
