Our 2025 Georgia Speed Puzzling Championship will be held on March 1st in the Atlanta area. The venue is the Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta, 5342 Tilly Mill Road, Dunwoody GA 30338.
Priority registration is given to Georgia residents. Only Georgia residents may register before January 1st. If there is still space available, out-of-state participants may then register.
This ticket gives 1 person entry into the following special event:
- Pairs Relay 2 x 200-300 piece: Check in at 11:30 a.m. 1h time limit
If you know your teammate's name, please enter it in the Note/Comment field during checkout.
Please check in for the Pairs Relay race at 11:30 am. Instructions will be given by 11:45, and the contest will start immediately afterward.
The Pairs Relay consists of two people completing two different 200p to 300p puzzles simultaneously. When the timer starts, each partner opens up one puzzle and begins assembling it on his/her half of the table. (Each pair will get an entire table for just this event).
Every 5 minutes, we will announce "Switch!", and the partners must switch places to work on the opposite puzzle. This repeats until time expires. Once one of your puzzles is finished, you will continue switching every 5 minutes. (Only one person may work on the remaining puzzle at any given time.)
Like the other events, each pair will keep the puzzles used in the contest.
You will have 60 minutes to finish both puzzles. If you do not finish the puzzles, you will be given credit for any groups of 3+ connected pieces. Rankings will be established first by completion time, and then by the number of pieces placed.
