In a significant stride towards revolutionizing the traditional game of Rummy, the Skillhub Online Games Federation (SOGF) has announced the launch of India’s first National Rummy Grandmasters. This pioneering event aims to give legitimacy to the skill involved in playing Rummy, recognizing and celebrating the players who excel in this traditional game.
A Comprehensive Structure to Identify Champions
The National Rummy Grandmasters will feature a comprehensive structure designed to identify and nurture Rummy talent across India. The competition will be divided into two main phases: the Zonal Rummy Grandmasters and the National Rummy Grandmasters.
Zonal Rummy Grandmasters
The Zonal Rummy Grandmasters will be conducted across five regions in India: North and North-Eastern, Central, West, South-East, and South-West Zones. Each zone will host its own series of competitions to find the best players within that region. The Western Zone, which includes Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Goa, will be the first to kick off this exciting event.
Players will initially compete in online qualifiers within their zones. The top players from these qualifiers will advance to physical events hosted by SOGF in their respective zones. These events will involve multiple rounds of intense competition, culminating in the selection of a Zonal Rummy Champion. This process will be replicated across all five zones, ensuring that the best talent from each region is identified and nurtured.
