Rules of Skat

The rules of Skat are at best complicated, and at worst incomprehensible. There is some information on the rules of Skat available for all to read, in the hope that reading leads to understanding.


Mission Statement

"To promote the playing of Skat, and to provide the means for members to do so."

This will be done through advertising the game in foreign regions, helping with the understanding of rules, running regular tournaments, helping members contact each other to arrange meetings, and providing first-class buildings and facilities for playing.
