Meeting changes.

We are changing our meeting day.

Instead of meeting every week we will now meet every other week at the Pint & Post.
Everything else stays the same.
To be sure, pop along to our website before you travel. It is updated regularly so will give up to date info on meeting dates.
If you still want to double check feel free to message me to confirm.

Backgammon is a great game that can be taught very quickly and once learnt will keep you playing and trying to improve your game forever.

Next meeting will be 2nd March at the "Pint & Post" at 19:30.

 Join us for a game.
The pub serves some great food as well as the all important drinks to keep you going.

February tourny

At yesterdays meeting at the "Pint and Post" we held our monthly mini tournament.The meeting was attended by seven players, not all participating in the tourny but all having a good evening.

We had one very new player who picked up the game very quickly and rumor has it that she spent the following morning playing Backgammon with her grandson. (Hooked i think)

The tournament was won by Alex Shaw with Reuben Oliver hot on her heels.

Its the school holidays so we had a couple of extra players in the shape of Poppy and Reuben.

Poppy still picking it up well with Reuben, as you can see from the results above, learning to fast.

And NO that's not Poppy's pint of bitter..

Unfortunately, due to the pubs quiz night and several other things that seem to all be happening on Wednesday  next weeks meeting has been cancelled. (sorry)


If you can play or fancy learning then why not come along to our next meeting.
Check our website for details HERE 
or get in touch via the website... See you there..

We are in the papers...

A nice piece in this weeks Cornish and Devon post featuring Reuben who was presented with a "Most Improved Player" Certificate at our last mini tournament.

 Due to the pub changing the day that it holds its quiz night we are moving the date of our end of month tournament forward to next Wednesday 17th Feb.

This has turned out be be beneficial to us as the schools are on holiday so some of our younger members may be able to attend.
