Our Aims
Formed in 2007 and incorporated in 2008, the West Australian Boardgaming Association is a not-for-profit collective of gamers who promote board and card games through a range of public events in Western Australia.
Our aims are:
* The promotion of boardgames in the West Australian community.
* The provision of regular game playing events at community venues.
Currently WABA currently runs a regular monthly event in Mt. Claremont (details here) and a bi-monthly event in Thornlie (details here)
We are currently investigating venues in the Northern suburbs.
You can find out more about the type of games we play here
Community Gaming
As well as running our own meets, WABA has been involved in a number of community programs including:
- Charity games event for the Friends of Hiam.
- Introduction to modern boardgaming at the City of Stirling Libraries
- Co-ordination of the gaming stream at Swancon 2009
The Committee
In accordance with West Australian rules for the incorporation of a non-profit organisation, WABA is run by an elected committee.
Details of committee members and their roles can be found here .
Fees
When venues incur a cost, this is passed on to attendees in the form of a small entrance fee to WABA events.
These fees are also used to provide raffle prizes at some events and to build the WABA Games Collection which is made available at all meets.
