USBGF TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP OPEN FOR REGISTRATION!!
It is with great pleasure that the U.S. Backgammon Federation (USBGF) presents the Inaugural USBGF Online Team Championship! The registration desk is now open. So Captains, mark your calendars, read and understand the terms of contest spelled out below, and enter your five-player Team Registration as soon as possible, and in any event no later than May 19, 2013. Captains should visit the USBGF Online Circuit Tournament Calendar and select from the list of available Online Team Championship Qualifiers currently in registration. Qualifying brackets of 8 will commence as soon as 8 teams are registered; up to 16 brackets will be offered. Winners of brackets will be fed into a single elimination Playoff commencing July 1.
Entry for the USBGF Online Team Championship is free. All players must be Premium or Youth members of the USBGF. Medals will be awarded to the first place team and certificates will be awarded to players of the top four teams at the Carolina Invitational Backgammon Championships on September 1, 2013 in Charlotte. Points will be awarded based on number of matches won, with medals going to the best performing team on the basis of points. In addition, medals will go to the team without a Giant of Backgammon that goes the furthest. Photos of winning team players will be featured on the USBGF Hall of Fame website page and the September-October 2013 third anniversary special issue of PrimeTime Backgammon electronic magazine.
There are just a handful of easy hoops that each player, five-person team, and captain must jump through to qualify for this event. You won’t find more fun, prestige, and recognition anywhere else!
