About

The League

The Worcestershire Pauper League was founded in 2026 to bring competitive Pauper Magic to Worcester. We're affiliated with the UK Pauper League, connecting our players to a national network of Pauper communities and giving them a pathway to UK Pauper Nationals.

Whether you're a seasoned Pauper player or completely new to the format, you're welcome here. Pauper is one of the most affordable ways to play competitive Magic, and we're committed to growing a friendly, inclusive community.
