The deadline for the U.S. Backgammon Federation's 2013 U.S. National Collegiate Championship is fast approaching. Registeration ends March 31 with the first round draw posted April 1. This year’s event will be run as a single elimination individual tournament for full- or part-time undergraduate and graduate college students residing and attending college in the United States.

International students are invited to enter our accompanying tournament, the 2013 International Collegiate Championship.

All matches will be played on Gridgammon.The format consists of single 7 point matches in the early rounds with semi-finals and final matches at 9 and 11 points respectively.

Entry is free. All entrants must be USBGF Youth members and enrolled at a college or university. Full and at least half-time undergraduate and graduate students may enroll as USBGF Youth members, regardless of age. Scholarship awards and certificates from a $1000 prize pool will be given to the top four placing U.S. individuals and top international winner, and a school prize will be awarded to the U.S. college with the most collective victories of up to three pre-designated team members
