North American Scrabble Players Association

National Sport Federations

The North American Scrabble Players Association, now trading as NASPA Games, is a nonprofit organization founded in 2009 to administer competitive Scrabble tournaments and clubs in North America. It officially took over these activities from the National Scrabble Association on 1 July 2009, after Hasbro decided to stop supporting adult tournament Scrabble, and it was registered in Texas as a not-for-profit corporation headquartered in Dallas. Since 31 July 2021 it has no longer been associated with Hasbro, the North American owner of the Scrabble trademarks, and its championship was renamed the Scrabble Players Championship. In June 2013 it had more than 2,500 dues-paid members. It publishes its own word list for tournament and club play.
