Thanks for a great 2015!

2015 was a very strong year for the Columbus Backgammon Club, due entirely to all the members who come out to support our events of all types. Our monthly tournaments and chouettes saw increases in attendance.

Here are some comparisons to last year, which illustrate this very well:

  • Our average monthly tournament attendance increased this year to 10.25 – an astounding gain of 2.25 people over last year!
  • The highest monthly tournament attendance this year was 14 – up 3 from last year
  • We had only 19 unique participants this year at our monthly tournaments this year (down 4 from last year), but coupling with the fact that we had a significantly higher average attendance leads me to the conclusion that our core membership is attending more regularly.
  • Our attendance is chouettes went up this year to an average of 4.5 for each event, which was up from 4 last year.
  • Our average attendance at the 9 social/open play events was 4.2, which is down from 5 per event last year. We only had 4 of these events in 2014, so this year’s number is more significant.

Our club also had a notable win this year by taking the trophy at the Ohio Valley Club Challenge – a feat that I hope that we can repeat in 2016 and defend the title!

I’m very proud to be a part of this club and its growth, and I hope that we can continue to set records in 2016!
