Welcome to the British
Stratego Association!
"The British Stratego Association exists to promote the game of
Stratego within Britain and around the world."
The British Stratego Association was formed in July 2005 by 3
of Britain's top Stratego players.
Since the B.S.A. was created, the U.K. has seen a much higher
profile for U.K. Stratego. This has resulted in many more British players
taking up the game. Our success has not only been with the increase in players
(which is one of our primary aims) but also with the increased strength of ALL
our players. This increase in standards has resulted in 3 major tournament
success's for 3 different British players within the first 18 months.
The strength of some of our "new" players is something which
is always good to see. One example is our top junior player, who only started
playing the game in September 2005. By November 2006 he was crowned "Junior
European U.L. Champion".
Major Tournament wins, since the B.S.A. was formed include:
2 British Olympic Champions.
a British Junior European Champion.
a British Junior World Champion.
a British double Ultimate Lightning Stratego World Champion.
a British Barrage Stratego World Champion.
& the British Stratego team becoming the World Team Champions in 2007.
