Responding to last year’s enthusiastic response, the CCCNY is proud to sponsor, by popular demand, its second domino tournament for its members and friends, including a complementary overview of the history of the game on the Island and the origins of EL DOBLE NUEVE, unique to Cuba. El dominó, considered Cuba’s second national pastime, continues to be played by Cubans wherever they settle, enriching their gatherings, while they expose new generations to the strategies and idiosyncrasies of the beloved game. Participants will have a chance to show their chops and competitive edge while munching on Cuban snacks and celebrating the whiffs of summer with a traditional mojito.*
DOBLE SEIS games will also be available on demand!
