World Scrabble Championship
Encyclopedia
The World Scrabble Championship is the most prestigious title in competitive English-language
Scrabble
. It has been held every second year since 1991. The current World Scrabble Champion is Nigel Richards. He won the title at the 2011
event held in Warsaw
, Poland
.
Sponsorship formerly alternated between Hasbro
and Mattel
, respectively the owners of the Scrabble trademark in North America and the rest of the world. However, Hasbro declined to sponsor WSC 2005
, and instead Mattel has organised and sponsored all championships since 2005.
The number of players competing in the tournament has risen steadily over time, from 48 in 1991
to 108 in 2009
. A set number of places is allocated to each competing country and it is then up to individual countries' national associations to determine which of their players will represent them. This is typically done by means of a national ratings system or qualifier tournaments or some combination of the two. A good performance by a national team according to specific criteria will earn further permanent places for that country.
