The British Stratego Association is the governing body for the game of Stratego within Great Britain. The success in recent times of British Stratego is partly due to the formation of the B.S.A. Before the B.S.A. formed in July of 2005, Britain had never won any major Stratego event. Britain now has an Olympic champion, a double World Champion, a Junior European Champion and in 2007 became World Team Champions in the 3 player event.[citation needed]
