HGC-Online Goes LiveOur on-line tournament management and club management system (HGC-Online) is now live! You can register in preparation for playing in any of our tournaments.You may have noticed that you can use the 'Login' link on the left and on our home page to go immediately to HGC-Online. Also, if you are or you become a member of our club you will be able to access our Library and the on-line check-out system. We have 60 books alone available for members to check-out. Not only that, but when you play at our club meetings you can check on your past game results to help determine what handicap you need to give Joe, who you haven't seen in a long while. This is just a taste of what is to come in the new web-based 'HGC-Online' system. Japan Festival
The annual Japan Festival is organized by the Japan-America Society of Houston. So on April 5th and 6th this year, with the help of our volunteers, we met many visitors interested in Go. The festival attracts tens of thousands of visitors and has been held in Hermann Park next to the Japanese Garden every year. The Houston Go Club is proud to have presented Go at each and every Japan Festival held since their beginning. See more pictures from the festival in our Gallery.
