About Varberg Mahjong Society
About the club
Varberg Mahjong Society (VMS) is a non-profit association that brings together mahjong players of all ages for regular game nights, training sessions and tournaments in Varberg, Sweden. The club was founded in 2025 and currently has the most EMA-ranked players of any club in Sweden. The board consists of Ingrid-Maria Erlandsson (chair), Danne Malmberg (secretary) and Martin Erlandsson (treasurer).
What we play
We primarily play the Chinese competition form MCR (Mahjong Competition Rules). We use the same rules for club competitions as when competing in EMA (European Mahjong Association) tournaments, both in Sweden and abroad. Several of our players have also tried the Japanese variant riichi. When playing online, we mainly use the app/site Mahjong Time.
Training and game nights
During the semesters, regular game sessions are arranged where both new and experienced players get the chance to practice tactics, scoring and tournament play. Game nights are held in Varberg and planned so that participants can play at competition pace as well as have more relaxed walkthroughs when needed.
