Information For Players New To Competitive Scrabble

We recommend that you come at least 15 minutes early so that we can go over the basic mechanics of a competitive Scrabble game, including use of the game clock and adjudicating challenges.

To make your first experience less intimidating, we provide the following advantages to new players:

  • Use of the Cheat Sheet for tournament players during play.
  • Free challenges: you will not be penalized if you challenge an opponent's play and the play proves to be acceptable.
  • No overtime penalty (normally 10 points/minute) if you take more than 25 minutes to make all of your plays.

If, at any time, you have a questions about rules or procedures, don't hesitate to ask for an explanation.

Here are some useful resources for new players:
