How to Play Go licensed |
In March the BGA was approached by a Taiwanese Game Manufacturer who wanted to use the text and diagrams from our “How to Play GO” booklet in a new Go set produced in volume for the North American and European market. They said “We found the 'How to play Go' on your web site is very clear and easy to understand”. Accordingly the BGA has granted them a non-exclusive licence to use this text (with appropriate acknowledgements etc.) for... |

Paul Smith and Maria Tabor to retire from Council |
Although I've written in the forthcoming British Go Journal that all Council members are offering themselves for re-election, it turns out that two of the existing members have recently decided not to for a variety of personal reasons. We thank them for their efforts and hope that they will still continue working with the BGA to promote and develop Go in the UK. Nominations for Council members are therefore solicited - this... |

33rd World Amateur Go Championship |
It appears that there has been some serious mis-communications and Matthew Macfadyen, who had been invited to play, turned down the invitation some time ago. Unfortunately we only discovered this yesterday after seeing the list of players entered. Francis Roads had been told that he had been nominated as our representative in the event that Matthew wasn't going to play, since he was 2nd in the points list, so we've apologised... |

We are asking as many as possible of our existing go clubs to consider sponsoring a new club in their local University or College by running a “go stall” at the “Freshers’ Fair” event in October, and helping any interested students to set up a new Go club and get it established. ... |
