Club SCRABBLE play in Canada and the United States is
administered by NASPA and its Club Committee.
There are two types of club listings available.
NASPA-sanctioned Clubs: We maintain a roster listing the NASPA-sanctioned clubs
that meet across North America and their meeting times.
Clubs will be listed when their $30 sanctioning fees are paid.
Club web sites may be listed as long as they do not contain inappropriate material or links to inappropriate material as periodically reviewed by the Club Committee.
Unless otherwise requested, only the first director listed in the response to the NASPA request for club information will be listed.
In order not to be removed from the list, the following criteria for sanctioned clubs are listed:
- Club sanctioning must be renewed each year by paying the sanctioning fee.
- The club director must be a sanctioned director, having taken and passed the director test.
- Club directors' membership status must be current and in good standing.
Casual Clubs: The Casual Club listing may be found at the National SCRABBLE Association Casual Clubs web page.
If you choose that option you will find a form on that page to fill out to list your club.
For NASPA-sanctioned clubs there is an annual club sanctioning fee of $30 which may be paid in one of the following manners:
- by check (drawn on a U.S. bank) or money order, payable to NASPA, sent to:
MARY RHOADES
