“Backgammon: More Than a Game, a Mind Sport”

26. April 2025

Backgammon is one of the world’s oldest board games, but it’s also recognized today as a competitive mind sport. Playing backgammon regularly can:

  • Improve memory and focus
  • Strengthen strategic thinking
  • Boost social interaction and sportsmanship

Our federation is committed to promoting backgammon not only as a competitive sport but also as a tool for cognitive development in schools and communities. Join us in celebrating the power of mind sports!
