Thursdays at the BCSC

Bristol Backgammon's Thursday sessions all offer various levels of learning opportunities, some more than others.
Listed below are the kinds of session which offer the best chance of education.
Check the dates of the different types of session here.

Consulting Doubles tournaments

There are four of these during the year, and top players are kept apart so that they can partner those who are less experienced. Because moves and cube decisions are discussed openly, these occasions are also valuable learning opportunities

Handicap knock-outs

Six of these tournaments feature during our year. All players, from elite to beginners, are allotted a handicap in an attempt to level the playing field. New players are given the most beneficial handicap

Tric Trac Tournos

There are two of these events scheduled for Thursdays in our calendar. Tric Trac Tournos encourage players to play for gammons, and the format allows you to meet several players in a single session
