As advertised in our local The Advocate newspaper and on WWL radio!
Aside from the annual Crescent City Cup, a local Scrabble tournament is held twice a year in Metairie, at the East Bank Regional Library, usually sometime in May and in the Fall.
Metairie NASPA Scrabble Club #541 organizes a small, fully rated one-day event for our local players.
And the tournament is open to anyone! We have a 7-game main event which is fully rated. For the more casual player, a non-rated Newcomers side event is open for recreational players where you can come and go in between matches starting at 9am.
We also have a School Scrabble tournament that runs in conjunction with the main event. This is open to students under 18, where students 9th grade and above play solo and 8th grade and below can play in pairs (or solo if they wish!).
Our last Metairie Saturday Scrabble tournament took place on November 22, 2025 and the following tournament date is in the works, date TBD.
If you're interested in playing, or just want to see what tournament Scrabble is all about, check back here for more updates coming soon.
Come find us at the tournament, or if you have any questions or would like to be kept in the know, contact us at lindsay.crotty@gmail.com.
