Overview
Beavers and raccoons is an experimental night designed to provide a fast entertaining evening of backgammon. At the very least you are guaranteed a fun evening and at the very best you can win lots of money.
Our first evening was held on Wednesday 25th September and was very well received. We modified the format for the second event to take into account the feedback from the first night. In particular:
1) Matches were longer;
2) We were more strict over the timings.
At the January event we played three 4-player knock-out tournaments followed by a 4-player Championship and an 8-player Runner-Up tournament. Every player was guaranteed at least three matches. The longer matches were played to 7-points.
The exact format of the next event will depend on numbers but expect lots of backgammon fun and frivolity.
