Does anyone know of any backgammon magazines? Quarterly, monthly, weekly—it doesn’t matter. I’m just interested in a good backgammon print magazine. I have found a lot of newsletters online, but I have yet to find a single magazine related to the topic.

Thanks for asking your question! This is something I have been searching for too. There used to be a great magazine, Inside Backgammon, but I think it was discontinued as I haven’t been able to find it for a long time. If anyone can let us know about any other backgammon magazines I would be happy to hear as well.

If you do a google search for “backgammon magazine” I think you’ll find some stuff.

Aside from that, the Chicago Point is a great magazine that is printed and they also have online material. You can check them out here: http://www.chicagopoint.com/

And you also have Bibafax, a backgammon publication that goes out six times a year. You can find more information here: http://www.backgammon-biba.co.uk/bibafax.html

I know you said you were looking for magazines in print, but there is also a lot of great stuff online. GamOnline, Kit Woolsey’s publication, is a great place to check out.

It’s true that are a ton of amazing backgammon publications online, and they are much more accessible that the few print magazines that are available. If the problem is that you don’t want to read off of a computer screen, you can always print the articles out.
