WWB Peer Coaching Program
After announcing the WWB Peer Coaching Program in November 2023, we received an overwhelming response from women eager to participate, along with several experienced players who voulunteered to serve as coaches.
The program officially launched in February 2024, pairing up to a dozen women - primarily intermediate and novice players - with dedicated mentors. Participants meet weekly on Friday's at 6pm EST via Zoom to play Consultation Mode matches on the popular backgammon platform Heroes (heroes.backgammonstudio.com). If you do not have a Heroes login, we can get you one.
Coaches help players recognize possible alternatives and understand the reasoning behind the strongest moves. As ones observer put it, you can't make the right play if you don't see it.
The Clinic sessions follow a doubles match format with two women volunteers playing two other women volunteers. Karen chimes in with questions or tips. Women observing the match also occasionally make comments or ask questions.
