“Speed” Scrabble Tournament

February 22^nd, 2025 9 a.m – 12 p.m.

Call the library at 507-616-7420 to sign up!

Teams of 2 players (you can sign up individually)

Up to 10 teams (20 players total)

Each team will play 5 scrabble rounds

• Time Limit is 25 minutes for each round
• Challenges: In a single challenge, an opposing team can challenge a word without penalty, and if the word is valid, it stays on the board.  If not valid that team will have to remove their word and lose that turn.  For a challenge, please stop the clock and you will have a total of 5 minutes to verify word.  You will only have 1 challenge per round.  So all rounds should end within 30 minutes.
• Scoring: Each player will keep track of their own score.  Teams are ranked by the number of combined games they win.  If teams have the same number of wins, a tie is broken by total points of the team’s 5 rounds.  Score your matches the same, total points minus total points of tiles left.
• Pairings will be displayed by team numbers.
