The English Tiddlywinks Association (ETwA) was founded at a meeting at Christ's College, University of Cambridge on 12 June 1958.〔 The Times 13 June 1958 pg. 13 - Tiddlywinks World Cup Rules Drawn Up, Association Formed 〕 Its objectives are to promote the game of tiddlywinks and coordinate winking activities in the United Kingdom. Daniel Wyatt from Carshalton is the current national champion. ETwA concerns itself with the maintenance of the official rules of tiddlywinks,〔 (The Rules of Tiddlywinks official web pages ) 〕 arranging of tiddlywinks tournaments, and publishing of the journal Winking World which has been published roughly twice a year since 1961.〔 (Tiddlywinks publications ) 〕〔 (Recent editions of Winking World available online ) 〕 An editor of Winking World was interviewed by Chris Evans on his BBC Radio Two show on 5 August 2008.〔(BBC Chris Evans info page ) 〕 Under the auspices of the English Tiddlywinks Association〔 (ETwA's listing forthcoming tournaments, recent results, and historical information about tiddlywinks tournaments ) 〕〔 (Winking World 81, pp. 20-26. ) 〕 several tournaments are held throughout the year including The National Singles, The National Pairs - the winners of which can enter the International Federation of Tiddlywinks Associations' World Pairs title - The ETwA National Teams of Four, The ETwA National Handicapped Individual Pairs, The Cambridge Open and The London Open. International players can participate in the ETwA tournaments.〔 (Family's Game Is No Joke ) The Washington Post 21 January 2006 〕 No ETwA tournament has a financial prize, although there are trophies. Results in all of these tournaments contribute to a player's World Rating.〔(Tiddlywinks World Ratings official web pages ) 〕 The current ETwA team sponsor is Rapanui Clothing, who designed the new logo and supplied the official kit for the 2010 world championships in Washington DC.〔(ETwA Official Kit Sponsor ) 〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「English Tiddlywinks Association」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
