Registration is now open for the 2024 USTA Members’ Tournament and closes May 5th. The event begins Monday, May 6th, and will last 4 to 5 weeks. You must be a USTA member to participate; you can join us here. You do not need to be from the US to become a member.
The US Tak Association is an organization devoted to supporting and growing the game of tak. This includes maintaining the playtak.com website, organizing learn-to-play events and tournaments at gaming conventions, and running the vast majority of online tournaments. While there are a few specific benefits of membership (such as participation in this tournament), the primary benefit is supporting us in our mission of spreading our love of tak.
The most important prizes available in this tournament are two qualification slots for the Tak Championship at the end of this year. Additionally, prizes for the top performers are wood and resin capstones handmade by Bill Leighton, two copies of the Tak Puzzle Compendium by Noah Fields, and two retired tournament tak sets. For the best finishers rated under 1600 and 1900, there are copies of Mastering Tak Levels I and II respectively. And if that weren’t enough, there are 15 USTA coins available that will be given by random draw to players who complete all of theirs games in the tournament.
Full details are available here. Please get in touch on Discord if you have any questions. Join the USTA, register for the tournament, and happy takking!
