There are currently 20 members in the group and the game is played in tables of 3 or 4 players. The rules can be a little complicated but one can play an enjoyable game even with only a basic knowledge.
Please note that it is nothing like the game you can find online!
If you enjoy card or board games, then Mahjong is for you - similar to Rummy, it is played with tiles with Chinese symbols instead of cards. In order to go out you need to collect 4 sets of 3 tiles and a pair, which you do by collecting and discarding tiles from a wall. Simple! 'Special Hands' are more challenging but great fun to try to achieve.
You don’t need to have your own set, as the group has a sufficient number of them to accommodate everyone. We are a very friendly group. So don’t hesitate to come, even if only as an observer to start with.
If you are a member please refer to the Baddow & Galleywood Year Book for the contact details.
