Our 2022 Tournament winners gathered in the beautiful Cheshire countryside for the 3rd UKBGF Tour Winners Invitational. It was to be an arduous weekend of backgammon with 13pt matches on Saturday followed by best of three 7pt matches on Sunday. The new format provided some excellent play (much of which can be seen on the UKBGF Youtube channel with commentary from an impressive array of experts – Day 1 and Day 2 together make up fifteen hours of coverage!). A big thank you to all our commentators over the whole weekend who very generously gave their time and shared their expertise.
