Mahjong is a popular – but quite complicated board game – originating from China. The tiles are exotic and add greatly to the enjoyment of the game. Although in China the game is closely associated with gambling, we play the Western version. Don’t worry if you haven’t played before as we have a beginners’ table, though it will help if you read this Wikipedia article before you come.
A subset of the group are very keen and many like to play every week and through the summer without a break. They are known as the 'Summer U3A Mahjong Players' and co-ordinate attendance via a special WhatsApp Group. If you are interested in joining this group, please contact the coordinator.
We have been advised that Stirling Council intend to re-purpose Callander Library and this means we will need to find a new home both for ourselves and our mahjong tables. However, currently we do not know when this will happen.
