There were an astonishing array of Demonstration and Participation games at the 2019 PAW show. The effort and skill invested in these games was clearly immense. We'd like to thank everyone for their efforts, which helped to make the 2019 show a success. We look forward to seeing what they bring to amaze us with in 2020.
These are the games that caught our Judges' attention, and the winners of the tournaments.
