Skill Brackets

The New England Backgammon Club features two levels of play in its tournaments.
`Expert'
This is the strongest bracket. Players in this bracket range from strong intermediate to world class.
`Intermediate/Novice'
This is the intermediate and novice bracket.

The two brackets are combined into one tournament when there is not enough interest in the intermediate/novice bracket. Intermediate/novice players can still enter for the lower entry fee, though they receive proportionally less prize money should they cash in the tournament.

Anchors

Anchors is the newsletter of the New England Backgammon Club. It is sent out by email monthly, except during the summer. It contains information on local backgammon news, as well as various backgammon related articles.
