About us

Melbourne's best backgammon club!

Please check the 'Discussion' page for updates as well as the events page.

Join us this and every Thursday evening at HUB 133 – 133 Thomas St, Brighton East.

Friendly, private, and secure venue.
$10 entry (entitles you to entry to the ‘free’ tournament, drinks and snacks).
Ample free local parking.
Boards are supplied, but you are welcome to bring your own.
Drinks and snacks provided.
Play starts at 7pm.
No waiting around: new match pairings are generated quickly.
You’ll never get knocked out!
Our tournament system puts you in control of how many matches you play.
No matches started after 9:45pm, but you are free to leave at any time.

Choose from two overlapping tournaments:

The Free Tournament: play as many 5-point matches as you like or can.
The $10 Prize Tournament: pay an extra $10 to compete in 5-point matches for a share of the night’s prize pool.
New to the game? Been a while since you’ve played? Not familiar with the doubling cube? We have assistance and coaching from friendly regulars to get you started – or re-started – and to help you with any issues that arise during your play.

(Please note that while we have a free membership here on Meetup we can't create an event every week; be sure to check the discussions page for announcements and news.)
