Excitement As 3rd Emmanuel Egbele Annual Scrabble Tournament Holds In June

One of the most glamorous tournaments in the Nigerian scrabble calendar, the Emmanuel Egbele Annual Scrabble Tournament (EEAST) will manifest into it’s Trilogy when the third edition comes up in Lagos early next month.

Top players including continental, national and regional champions as well as other strong players across categories will clash with one another at the tournament from June 2-3.

Instructively, the EEAST has become a veritable arena for exciting competition among the players.

This edition according to the organisers will once again take the notch higher as the tournament has witnessed in every edition.

Last year at the “Sophomore” edition, the highly sought after tournament attained a new prestige as a specially crafted red Jacket was created and presented to the overall winner Enoch Nwali at a well-attended Gala Night at the Eko Hotel.

Nwali would go ahead to claim the 14th African Scrabble Championship (ASC) title.

The initiator, Emmanuel Egbele while revealing the details of the 2023 edition of championship tagged “The Trilogy”, said this edition was strategically planned by his team at setting higher standards as a preparatory ground for players representing the country at the World English Language Speaking Scrabble Players Association Championship (WESPAC) scheduled for July.

“The Trilogy is the third installment of the Emmanuel Egbele Annual Scrabble Tournament (EEAST) and is expected to unpack a lot of activities during the Tournament.” He said, “What we should expect is a high tempo tournament similar to what was witnessed last year and more.

Being a top rated event on the NSF Calendar, we expect top players to jostle for prizes and ultimately for the trophy and to be adorned in our red jacket.”

He continued, “the EEAST is a celebration of tournament scrabble in Nigeria. It’s adding brighter lights to what we all love to see. We are thrilled that the EEAST is getting to the third level which we named the “Trilogy”. The encouraging and positive reviews from the “Sophomore” edition show that we are moving in an ascending direction” he said.
