NSC Announcement
The ABSP is pleased to announce that the NSC Finals will take place, as previously hinted,
at the Sir Naim Dangoor Centre, Westminster Academy in West London, on October 6/7 2018.
The cost will cover use of room, officials, prize fund and refreshments only - accommodation
and meals are to be arranged by the players. The cost is likely to be around £70/£80 and has
again been generously sponsored by Elie Dangoor, who has contributed £2000 towards the event.
Alongside, this the ABSP will be running the Plate event again, open to anyone who has not qualified
for the Main Finals. Note - you cannot enter the plate if you have qualified for the NSC proper.
Both events will be 16 games, with start times around 10.30 on the Saturday and 9.15 on the Sunday.
There will be no games in the evening on Saturday and departure will be around 6.30 on Sunday.
Details of qualifying events and qualification criteria can be found here
WISHING YOU A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR!

ABSP Online Scrabble league
Do you enjoy playing friendly Facebook Scrabble games against other members?
Would you prefer to pit your wits in a more structured competition?
Well now you can.... ABSP Online is a new league exclusively for ABSP members.
The league will run fortnightly on a Tuesday, starting on Tuesday July 11th. Games will be played on the Facebook Scrabble app and you'll have two weeks to complete all your games.
Initial divisions will be based on ABSP rating and thereafter by promotions and demotions at the end of each round. This is initially a trial and as things progress, we may add other types of competition.
(Note – online games are, of course, not ABSP rated!)
To find out more and register to play, join the facebook group (you will need a Facebook account and the EA facebook scrabble game).https://www.facebook.com/groups/absponline/
You will also need to be registered on myscrabbleapp.com
Registration is free for ABSP members - we will add you when you join the facebook group.
If not currently a member, you can join the ABSP at http://www.absp.org.uk/absp/joinus.shtml
Give it a try, let's see how many ABSP Scrabblers we can fit into a virtual room.
Spread the word!
