World championships ambition

by Xylophone @ 2007-04-30 - 13:09:56

This year's Scrabble World Championships are to be held in Mumbai, India in November. Being approximately the 100th best player in the country, I am nowhere near qualifying for the 10 person English team. Except......

One place in the team has yet to be alloted. That goes to the winner of the British Matchplay Scrabble Championship to be held in Staffordshire in August. Lots of the country's top players will be taking part and many of them, like me, will be hoping to sneak into the Worlds that weekend.

It involves 18 games held over 3 days and to be honest, I'm probably a 100/1 shot at the moment but I've got 3 months to train and a man can dream can't he?
