Carrom Tournament in Cambridge, MA organized by Asha for Education!!

Asha for Education’s Boston chapter is pleased to invite you to a carrom tournament in Cambridge’s Central Square on Saturday, March 3^rd. Need a reason to compete?

5. Unravel the laws of physics. As the striker transfers its momentum to the carrom coins, prove that Newton’s laws of motions still work. Or become famous by proving that they don’t.

4. Nostalgia. Carrom is an incredibly popular board game in South Asia. Relive your childhood… or perhaps your South Asian friend’s childhood. For more information on how that friend spent his formative years, see www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrom.

3. Learn a new board game. Haven’t you been looking for an alternative to Monopoly and Trivial Pursuit? Carrom is more strategic than chutes-and-ladders but less intense than chess — and you can learn the game in just a few minutes.

2. Have fun. Bring a cheering squad. And those other friends who are not so into cheering. Play carrom in the company of some cool people and have a shot at being Carrom King or Queen of Boston.

1. Make the world a better place. Asha for Education’s Boston/MIT Chapter currently supports 9 grassroots projects working with hundreds of underprivileged students. Help them hit the books by taking a break from your own.
