In the Belgian Rengo Championship, teams of 2 players battle it out to become the Belgian Rengo Team Champion.

What is Rengo ?

To play Rengo all you need is to know how to play Go and find a partner to make a team of 2 players.
Rengo is a popular variant of Go played in many countries for hundreds of years. It is played by 2 teams of two players - with no gender restriction.
The rules of Go apply, but players in each team alternate play turn and no conferring is allowed. Therefore, new game ideas emerge and collaborative play/tacit understanding with his/her partner is needed in order to win.
Quote: "In Rengo winning doubles joy, losing halves sorrow".

Belgisch kampioenschap "rengo": live, zondag 19 december (georganiseerd onder voorbehoud)
Vereniging België-China
Avenue Paul Deschanellaan 92
BRUSSELS Schaerbeek 1030

We willen het Belgisch kampioenschap pair go, waarvan de laatste editie dateert uit 2011 nieuw leven inblazen!

Dit is een toernooi waarin teams van 2 spelers het tegen elkaar opnemen. Ditmaal wordt het een “rengo” toernooi (in de plaats van “pair go”), wat betekent dat teams niet noodzakelijk uit gemengde (1 man & 1 vrouw) paren moeten bestaan (wat betreft kwalificatie voor internationale competities komen echter enkel gemengde paren in aanmerking met beide spelers lid van de Federatie).

Vul het volgende formulier in om deel te nemen (één formulier per team): : https://forms.gle/ufJdoixyejRk6gMo7
