We award dan certificates to BGA members who have achieved sufficiently excellent tournament results (description of the system used ).
BGA dan grades are awarded for life, so a few of the people on this main list are
no longer active players or members of the BGA.
Some information is incomplete - please let us know if you can provide it.
Point at each player's name to see the date they were awarded each
grade.
Total: 433 dans shared between 201 dan players
