What we’re about
The Backgammon Club of New Jersey
(merged with Hackensack BG Club)
The Backgammon Club of New Jersey has reinvigorated the enjoyment and social aspect of the game of Backgammon. All levels of skill are welcome including anyone who wants to learn how to play, and available to all ages. We provide lessons for beginners and intermediate players. We challenge the advanced players, and enjoy Tournament Play. We boast having USBGF Tournament Winners amongst our ranks.
...and it is free to join!
