The fall backgammon tournament is upon us!
Can you dethrone the reigning champion and take home the “Anar of Honor?”
The Society of Young Professionals (SYP) chapter of The SIAWE is hosting our 4th Backgammon Tournament Fundraiser.
The tournament will take place upstairs at
Hungry’s in Rice Village
2356 Rice Blvd
Houston TX 77005
Date: November 2, 2025
Check-In: 12:00-1:00 pm
Round 1: 1:00 pm
All tickets include entry to the tournament, pizza, and chai.
Drinks and a full bar will be available for purchase.
**Note** All players should review the OFFICIAL RULES of the tournament. If you are purchasing tickets for multiple players, it is your responsibility to share the official rules with them.
For this tournament, each match will be 3 out of 5 games, and those who do not win their first round match will move to a consolation bracket. We will still play that “hit and run” in your home is allowed, and there will be no use of the doubling cube.
While we strive to make our tournament as professional as possible, it is still a fundraiser for our non-profit, so any player is welcome as long as spots are available. We recommend that you should know how to play backgammon and have a good understanding of the rules to join the tournament.
