Happy New Year & Season Kick-Off

Jan 01, 2025

On behalf of the EBGL organizing committee, we would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year! May all of your 10 x 10's in 2025 be completed!

Now that the new year is upon us, we are looking forward to kicking off the start of our 2025 season with a jam-packed January. We have our Season Opener event on Friday, January 17th, followed by a practice night on January 31st for our first cooperative focus game since 2015! We also have an "unofficial" open gaming night on January 3rd to help with any holiday boredom - attendance will not be scored at this event.

See you at the game table!

The 2024 Edmonton Board Gaming League season officially ended a bit later this season with our final DOMINATION event occurring on November 1st and our season award winners announced during our November 15th awards night event. On behalf of the entire club and our sponsors, we'd like to congratulate the following members on their awards this year:

2024 Second Place (second highest league rating) - Rob D
2024 Third Place (third highest league rating) - Patrick C

2024 continued to be a another strong, record-setting year as we boasted a new record roster size (50 players!), a record number of new applicants in their rookie year (eleven!), launched a new merchandise store, and achieved all-time club attendance records at many events, including optional special events. We're very proud of our inclusive culture and the addition of new player-voted titles and a new Most Social Player award! Also, for the second year in a row we also achieved a new record spend with our sponsor store (Mission: Fun & Games) and record prize pools.


Huge thanks to all of our members, organizers, and of course our sponsor for making our 2024 season another one for the history books! We hope to see you all on November 29th at 7pm for the 2025 Season Registration event!
