The [[2016 North American SCRABBLE Championship]] will
include a sixth annual '''Early Bird'''
tournament, which will again be a NASPA-rated event.
This tournament offers a playing opportunity
to a group of players who can play in fewer
SCRABBLE tournaments than others: NASC staff
and other NASPA directors.
The event will take place in the main tournament playing room,
and will be directed by [[John Chew]].
