The Mind Sports Olympiad is a vehicle for promoting mental-skill games, including Chess, Go, Mastermind, Backgammon and Scrabble.

Since 1997 it has organised annual Mind Sports Olympiads in the UK, and has been involved in supporting a number of similar events elsewhere, in particular in Cambridge and Milan, Italy.

In some years it has been well supported in others it has not -
it's popularity has often gone hand in hand with the choice of venue.

This year it will be at the wonderful
Royal Horticultural Halls and Conference Centre
near Parliament Square, London.

In previous years Biba have run the backgammon at MSO events
but this year Michael Crane is taking a back seat.
