Welcome to the UK Go Challenge Get ready to take the Challenge! The 2010 Challenge is now over. It will be back in 2011.

In the British Go Association, we like to call Go the "extreme mind sport". Millions of children love to play it in China, Japan and Korea, and we think millions will love it here too when they find out about it. So in 2004 we set up the UK Go Challenge for schools and youth clubs. Hundreds of children have already taken part, for instance over 200 joined in the fun of the 2009 Challenge at 10 heats.

If you have not played Go before, do not worry. It only takes a few minutes to get started. To find out more before you decide, your can order a Go Evaluation Pack for only £5. It contains the rules, a starter playing set and lots more. We can also arrange for a teacher to visit you, provide leaflets and other help, and we have negotiated a discount on equipment from a Go supplier.

If you cannot been part of a heat, you can still come to the Finals; since 2009 we also have a Challengers' Tournament alongside, for beginners and novices.
