'''Club''' SCRABBLE play in Canada and the United States is
administered by [[NASPA]] and its [[Club Committee]].
'''NASPA-sanctioned Clubs:''' We maintain a roster listing the NASPA-sanctioned clubs
that meet across North America and their meeting times.
Clubs will be listed when their annual US$30 sanctioning fees are paid. The initial sanctioning fee will be valid until the end of 2010. Thereafter, ongoing club sanctions will begin on January 1 and end on December 31.
Unless all club directors concerned have agreed,
only one sanctioned club will be permitted
to meet on any given day of the week
within a 50-mile radius.
The $30 fee entitles the director to this exclusivity
on one day of the week of his or her choosing.
If a director wants a club to meet on more than one day of the week,
the director may pay additional $30 fees to obtain this same exclusivity,
or not pay additional fees and not receive exclusivity.
Club web sites may be listed as long as they do not contain inappropriate material or links to inappropriate material as periodically reviewed by the Club Committee.
Unless otherwise requested, only the first director listed in the response to the NASPA request for club information will be listed.
In order not to be removed from the list, the following criteria for sanctioned clubs are listed:
* Club sanctioning must be renewed each year by paying the sanctioning fee.
* The club director must be a sanctioned director, having taken and passed the director test.
* Club directors' NASPA membership status must be current and in good standing.
'''Casual Clubs:''' The Casual Club listing may be found at the [http://www2.scrabble-assoc.com/main.asp?id=61 '''National SCRABBLE Association Casual Clubs'''] web page.
Club directors who choose that option as their only listing will not be listed on the NSAPA NASPA club listing. If you choose that option you will find a form on that page to fill out to list your club.
