2006 Toronto vs. Mississauga Tournament

The second annual Toronto-Mississauga interclub Scrabble® match will take place on Sunday, April 9th, 2006 at the Port Credit Arena, 40 Stavebank Road N, Mississauga.

Toronto won the inaugural event by a score of 17-15. This year, the tournament expands to three divisions.

Players should arrive in time to play by 9:00 A.M. (time to be confirmed) and be prepared to play a seven-round schedule with an hour’s break for lunch. Kibitzers are welcome, though space is limited.

Rules

We will play by regular NSA tournament rules, including the keeping of game scores (unlike at Toronto vs. Montreal where for historical reasons only wins and losses are recorded). However, spread will not be used to determine team victory: if both teams score the same number of wins, the event will be declared a tie.

John and Craig draw to see which side goes first in odd-numbered rounds, overriding the NSA’s usual protocol.

$10 will be collected from each player at the tournament at the door, to cover the cost of the rating fee and venue rental.
