Candyce Welch was first introduced to Mahjong in 1973 when her mother brought home a set for her large game loving family of 8.

Candyce is a lifelong lover of games and teacher of her passions.

She taught aerobics and other fitness classes for over fifteen years. She has taught arts & craft classes at Lake Austin Spa Resort for more than ten years and Mahjong both privately and at the resort for more than seven years.

Candyce is a purist when it comes to Mahjong. She adheres to National Mahjong League rules,

preferring not to introduce table rules that simplify the game and reduce the level of challenge.

The complexity of the game is what she is most drawn to.

Her latest passion is tournament play. Always up for a challenge, Candyce relishes the quick pace, enhanced rules and complex scoring utilized in tournaments.
