  • World Boardgaming Championships World Boardgaming Championships
    World Boardgaming Championships 2008-2009 Yearbook www.boardgamers.org [email protected] A Retrospective of WBC Teams Over the Years by David Docktor Preregister your team for WBC 2009! Contents 1 is an association of boardgame enthusiasts incorporated as a non-profit company BPA in the state of South Carolina for the express purpose of hosting the annual gaming conference known as the World Boardgaming Championships, or WBC for short. It offers tournaments, vendors, an auction, demonstrations, seminars, open gaming, and Juniors and Teen programs. In ad- dition, for those who can’t get enough, we offer focused Mini-Cons and Play-by-Email-Tournaments. We love boardgaming competition — from wargames and Eurogames to racing, sports, and rail games, and we make no apologies for it. It’s what we do. And we’ve done it better than anybody else for more than ten years. This yearbook documents BPA events of the previous year. It does not contain schedul- ing information for the upcoming convention. Schedules and event previews will appear in a separate program and online at boardgamers.org. In fact, on our website, you’ll find more pre- and post-event information than any place on the net — over 1,000 pages of it. It’s not very lucrative or cost effective, but we think it demonstrates our commitment to this hobby. To help support BPA activities, take a moment to subscribe to our FREE e-mail newsletter via the web site and continue to spread the good news about our association and its activities.
