This tournament is hosted at Aster Gardens - 7 Brower Drive, Sherwood Park.
Join Us for a Friendly Scrabble Tournament!
If you love words, laughter, and a little friendly competition, our Casual Scrabble Tournament is the perfect way to spend an afternoon. This event is designed especially for older adults who enjoy the game but don’t want anything too serious or high‑pressure. Whether you’re a longtime Scrabble fan or someone who just likes to play for fun, you’ll fit right in.
What to Expect
Our Scrabble tournament is all about connection, creativity, and community. You’ll play short, relaxed rounds with different partners, meet new people, and enjoy the fun of building words without worrying about complicated tournament rules.
We’ll have:
-
A warm, welcoming atmosphere
-
Easy‑to‑follow instructions
-
Light refreshments
-
Small prizes for top scorers
-
Lots of laughs and friendly chatter
This is not a competitive, official Scrabble event — it’s a social gathering with a game at the centre of it.
Who Can Join?
Everyone! You don’t need to be a Scrabble expert. You don’t need to know every two‑letter word ever invented. You just need to enjoy the game and be open to having fun.
Why a Casual Tournament?
Traditional Scrabble tournaments can be intense — timers, strict rules, and serious players. That’s not what we’re doing here. Our version is:
-
Slower paced
-
More social
-
Less about winning
-
More about enjoying the moment
If you’ve ever thought, “I’d love to play, but I don’t want to feel pressured,” this is the event for you.
There are a limited number of spots so please register early!

Please do this again if it’s popular!
Glad it’s not just for experts. Some of us just play for laughs.
Not a fan of word games, but I bet the crowd will be fun.
Can we bring our own boards in case it gets busy?
Nothing beats friendly Scrabble on a fall afternoon.
I hope there’s enough spots. Registering now!
Is there wheelchair access at Aster Gardens?
Thank you for making this for older adults!
Will there be coffee with the refreshments? Asking for a friend.
Love Scrabble but I’m terrible at it. Might still join!
I wish more events like this happened on weekends.
I like that it’s not super competitive. Way less stressful!
Sounds fun! My grandma would love this.
