Intro to Speed Puzzling
Have you wanted to try a speed puzzling competition but don’t know what it is all about?
Interested in learning how to take your casual puzzling to the next level?
Want to try a low-stakes competition but there is nothing available locally?
Join us for a hands-on, two-part virtual workshop to explore the sport of speed puzzling.
This workshop is geared towards new and beginner speed puzzlers. No experience required.
Three small piece count practice puzzles & a 300 piece competition puzzle included.
Priority registration will go to puzzlers on our waitlist.
Information on registration will come once we are set up on our new event registration platform. We will contact those on our waitlist.
Currently the waitlist is at capacity for the Individual Event. You may still add your name to the waitlist, but will be contacted in the second round if the initial puzzlers do not register in the first wave.

Can I open my parcel when I receive it?
A: When you receive your puzzles, do not open the package. At the start of Part 1, everyone will open the outer package together to reveal the practice puzzles. The competition puzzle will remain concealed until Part 2, Competition Day.
Can my friend and I join in individual workshop together?
A: Yes, but for each registration, please only join the Zoom call from one device. On the second day we will have a competition and only the registered participant can participate.
