1st and 3rd Monday in Rocklin. We play competitive backgammon tournaments in a fun and social environment. We welcome all skill levels, from the beginner to the expert, we have something for all players.
Round Table Pizza on Sunset Blvd in Rocklin, beginning at 11:15. We will play a round robin format, 5 or more point matches. Registration is $20, which will be returned to the players in prize money. First timers pay 1/2 the registration Fee.
Bring your boards if you have one and join us for a great day of backgammon, friends and pizza!
- At the start of a game, introduce yourself, shake hands and give your opponent a friendly comment, like "good luck" or just ask something small like "where are you from?". It doesn't matter exactly how you do this as long as it's in good spirit.
- At the end of a game, give your opponent a friendly farewell comment like "well played" or "hope to play you again".
- Both players should keep track of scores to make sure you are both in agreement. Announce scores and acknowledge it when your opponent does so.
- Shake the dice properly with at least three shakes. Roll the dice gently onto the board but make sure your opponent isn't still taking their turn.
God Bless!
