Club activities
Most clubs organize weekly or monthly events: check out the calendar. Depending on the number of players that show up, a little tournament is organized or people just play some friendly matches. Participation is usually for free or at very low registration fees. An email or text message to the organizer to announce your participation is well appreciated, of course. Most players bring their own board, but you’re welcome without equipment too.
Players in Gent meet weekly on Tuesday evening, in Antwerp on Wednesday evening, and in Brugge and Brussels on Thursday evening. The Backgammon Club Leuven hosts the monthly Sunday afternoon tournaments and the Backgammon Club Brussels has started a monthly Sunday afternoon event too. Yearly events organized by the clubs are the Gent Open and the Leuven Open.
