More Sports and Games In Barbados!


There's always a game of some kind being played in Barbados and dominos would be one of them. Bajans love to play dominos, chess, draughts (checkers) and warri.

Warri, also known as the Game of Houses, is said to be the oldest game of the island, dating back several thousand years and originating in Africa.

If you would like to learn the game, here's the link.

Bajans also play pool, darts, cards and scrabble.

In mid-August, the sound of dominoes smacking tables can be heard as the best domino players across the island compete for the title: Banks Domino Champions in the Banks Domino Tournament.
