In Response To: Mochy/Simborg Duel Streaming (Phil Simborg)

I and JBL started the project called U25 (Under 25 years old) which is run for 5,6 years now.

Aim of the project is educating young players through summer camp, meeting, competition etc. I and Michy often join and teach backgammon though the project itself run by youth players. The winner of the annual competition will be sent to Las Vegas Open (fall) with free hotel, air and entry. That is the main reason why I need to raise up the fund. You can see some picks at http://blog.goo.ne.jp/mochy3_8/c/69f6b812aa6f72a99320753f0cb53998?hc_location=ufi (myblog).

The result is great. Now we have many strong young players and if I attend local backgammon tournament I feel like I am one the oldest players. Especially university students has lot of time and friend so backgammon can easily be expand among them.

We also plan to have a competition against other countries (like we did against France). I also want to invite foreigners to the summer camp too. In short, I want to make it world wide project in the future.

If you want to support the project, please make the donation through paypal to mochy@backgammon.gr.jp thank you.
