Masterpoint Races
The Mini-McKenney races track the top masterpoint winners annually (excluding online colorless points). They are in fifteen brackets, so whether you started the year at zero or you’re already a Grand Life Master, there’s a race for you!
The Helen Shanbrom Ace of Clubs awards work the same way, but they only count in-person club games.
All 2025 year to date Connecticut Mini-McKenney and Ace of Clubs top ten lists. These update monthly, on the sixth of each month.
NABC Winners
The ACBL runs three national tournaments annually, each with multiple showcase events. Here’s a list of Connecticut players who have won the most prestigious competitions in the USA!
