What a great afternoon we had at the Yateley Fun Palace!
There was lots happening, with choirs, bath bomb making, water painting, colouring, slinkachu photography all going on while we were playing 5 moves against anyone interested!
We were amazed with the quality of many of the moves by our visitors, many of whom scored over 100 points in 5 moves against us!
Here are a couple of photos we took which gives a flavour of the afternoon.
If any of our visitors today are reading this, don’t forget we meet 730 every Thursday at St Sebastians Cricket Pavilion, Nine Mile Ride, Crowthorne. We’d love to see you there !

Recently over the Bank Holiday weekend, one of our members, Andy Becher, travelled to Nottingham to take part in the British Matchplay Scrabble Championship. To see how he got on in the A division of 25 MAIN GAME event click here http://www.centrestar.co.uk/tsh/16bmsc/html
Andy also played in the A division of the 10 game EXTRA event. The STANDINGS show how each round unfolded of that event click here http://www.centrestar.co.uk/tsh/16bmscex/html
Most rounds of the two tournaments had an annotated game. These enable you to see the racks of each player just before they play, giving you the opportunity to decide what you would play in their position. http://www.centrestar.co.uk/tsh/16bmsc/html/annotations.html
