TOURNAMENT FORMAT

Several club members serve as the tournament director on a rotating basis.

All matches are 7-points played with the doubling cube. We use the US Backgammon Tournament Rules & Procedures.

The format guarantees each player a minimum of two matches, (not necessarily two losses). Generally, with fields up to 16 players the tournament should be completed in 3 to 3-1/2 hours or less.

Entry Fees

100% return of all entry fees and side pool entries.

Prize Distribution

A special note regarding the venue:
The $1 registration fee goes to the server that waits on our group. All participants are also expected to tip the server generously for their drink and food orders. Please take into consideration that you may be occupying a spot in the restaurant far longer than most regular patrons.

LESSONS!
For beginning backgammon players we offer a free informal lesson starting 1 hour before the tournament start time. Call ahead (see 'Contacts' below) to ensure one of our volunteer 'professors' will be there. Read about the basics of backgammon.

MEMBERSHIP
There are no membership dues or fees to join the Northside Backgammon Club. You are a member as soon as you come and play! We hope to see you soon.
