EUCHRE FAQ

World Euchre Federation FAQ: Rules, Tournaments, and More

CHECK-IN

  • While there's no dress code, we encourage participants to embrace their Euchre spirit. Then again, if you’d rather not get all gussied up, that’s OK too.

  • No. For some reason we get this a lot. Is this the norm elsewhere? This is the World Euchre Championship; we will provide the cards, so there is no need to bring your lucky deck. Just bring your Euchre skills and a positive attitude. And who knows, you just might leave with a deck of cards.

  • Yes. You must be 18 years of age to participate. And if you are under 21 years of age your parent must register with you and be on site at all times.

  • No, sorry, there are no refunds.

GAME PLAY

  • Yes! Not only do we have a singles tournament, but the doubles tournament is also open to individuals. Just let us know you need a partner, and we will be happily to pair you up with a fellow Euchre enthusiast.

  • Yes. Each player much put $1 in the "bump" cup at their table when they are Euchred. Remember, this is a fundraiser.

  • You will be able to get dollar bills at the tournament venue after you check-in. Table runners will also have dollar bills on them. Last year players paid an average of $7 in penalties in the tournament.

  • There are three rounds on Saturday for the main tournament. Each should last 4 hours, with the championship round taking a little longer.

  • Absolutely true! Join us, and you might just become the stuff of Euchre legends!
