The 2009 National SCRABBLE Championship will take place on August 1-5, 2009 at the Dayton Convention Center at 22 East Fifth Street, Dayton, OH, 45042.
Dayton has a metropolitan population of almost one million and is located in southwestern Ohio. It is a center for industrial, aerospace and engineering research, and home to major multinational corporations.
The last major Scrabble tournament to be held in Dayton was the 2007 Players Championship, contested by 450 players from around the world.
The nearest international airports to the Convention Center are:
For local information about what businesses and entertainment are within walking distance of the Convention Center, please visit the Dayton Most Metro web sites for the [Central Business District] and [Oregon District].
Online registration will begin in late February.
To play in the first round on Saturday morning, you must check in between 10:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. on Friday at the NSC check-in desks in the convention center lobby. You may ask a friend to check in for you by proxy, if you cannot check in in person. If you check in by proxy but do not show up to play, then neither you nor your proxy will be permitted to check in by proxy at future events. If you do not check in before the desks close at 10:00 P.M., you may join the championship in progress as soon as it is convenient for the pairings staff to add you back in; this may not take place before Sunday morning. No refunds will be issued to latecomers.
When you check in, you will be given an announcement sheet. This is to reduce the number of announcements that have to be made on Saturday morning, so that the event can get underway quickly. You are responsible for reading the announcements and schedule!
In an emergency, if you are delayed en route to check in or for any morning of play, call Mary Rhoades at 817-718-3115.
