Big Games in December 2025
A big shout-out to the following members who achieved big games recently: ​​
If you have a Big Game, be sure to tell us so that we can ​celebrate your success!
The Tim Stecker Player of the Year Award
The Tim Stecker Player of the Year Award is awarded annually to recognize the player with the most success in unit-sanctioned games. It is named in honor of our board member and statistician for the award, Tim, who passed away in June, 2020.
​
The award is based on the number of master points earned at our Saturday Unit Games and at our sectional and non-life master tournaments. In order to win you have to be a member of Unit 169 and play in at least six Unit Games. The person with the most master points at the end of the year wins our Unit’s most prestigious "Tim Stecker Player of the Year Award."​
