“Scrabble South Africa is trying to expand the number of players and Clubs in South Africa. The best way to find out about a Scrabble competition is to play in one and the Benoni Scrabble competition will be a good entry point for new players or those interested in finding out more about it. The competitions are aligned to the World English Language Scrabble® Players Association (WESPA), which was formed in 2003. Scrabble South Africa is a non-profit organisation and is run by scrabble enthusiasts,” says Andrew Goldberg, chairperson of Scrabble South Africa.
