The official board builder of the world crokinole championship
Family-owned and operated in Ontario, Canada, Tracey Boards builds premium tabletop games for people who love to play.
What started with our family's lifelong love of crokinole has expanded to include Carrooka — but the goal hasn't changed:
Build exceptional games that bring people together.
What Makes Tracey Boards Different?
We build boards for players — and we’re players ourselves.
Every Tracey Tour Board is built with one standard in mind: it has to deliver an exceptional playing experience. From the materials we choose to the way each board is finished, performance comes first.
If it’s not a board the best players in the world would choose to play on, it doesn’t get shipped.
We take a lot of pride in how our boards look, but they’re built to be played. Played hard, played often, and built to last long enough to pass down to the next generation.

A Legacy of Craftsmanship
Before there were Tracey Tour Boards, there were Willard Martin Crokinole Boards.
For nearly 30 years, Willard built some of the most respected crokinole boards in the game. When Jeremy began building boards, he learned directly from Willard — not only how to build a great board, but what makes one play exceptionally well.
Willard’s proven design became the foundation of the Tracey Tour Board we build today. We’ve continued to refine the process over the years, but the standards and craftsmanship he passed along remain a big part of every board that leaves our shop.
We’re proud to carry that legacy forward.
Bringing Carrooka to North America
Bringing Carrooka to North America
We partnered with Jack and George Furnival, the creators of Carrooka in the UK, to bring their unique game to North America. Carrooka combines the strategy and feel of cue sports with the hands-on fun of flicking games — and from the first time we played it, we knew it was something special.
Today, we build Carrooka boards right here in our Elmira, Ontario shop, bringing the same focus on quality, craftsmanship, and great gameplay that has always been at the heart of Tracey Boards.
It’s a different game with its own identity, but it fits naturally into our story: well-made games that bring people together around a table.
About The Traceys
About The Traceys
Crokinole has been part of the Tracey family for generations. Jeremy was introduced to the game at just 19 months old by his Grampie Reid, beginning a lifelong love of the game.
Today, Tracey Boards is truly a family business. Jeremy and Elaine work alongside their sons Reid and Garret, while Nolan remains very much part of the family’s connection to crokinole. Together, the Traceys have spent countless hours building boards, competing, and sharing the games they love with players around the world.
For the Traceys, these aren’t just games we sell. They’re games we play.
Jeremy Tracey
Jeremy Tracey
Jeremy doesn’t just build crokinole boards — he’s an accomplished competitive player who understands firsthand what separates a good board from a great one.
In 2025, he won the World Crokinole Championship Doubles with Andrew Hutchinson, as well as the US Open.
That competitive experience shapes how Tracey Boards are built. From the playing surface to the smallest finishing details, Jeremy believes every board should meet the same standards he expects when competing at the highest level.
His goal is simple: build boards he’d be proud to compete on himself.
Elaine Tracey
Elaine is the behind-the-scenes force that keeps Tracey Boards running. From bookkeeping and quality control to button sorting and countless other details, she has a hand in just about everything.
Her high standards for craftsmanship and attention to detail help ensure that what leaves our shop is something the whole family is proud to put the Tracey name on.
Reid Tracey
Reid is the Production Manager at Tracey Boards, overseeing the day-to-day production of our boards and running the shop floor. From maintaining our quality standards to keeping production moving, Reid is responsible for making sure the boards we build meet the standards we've built our reputation on.
He's also an accomplished competitive crokinole player, bringing a player's understanding of what a great board should look, feel and play like.
Reid doesn't just help build Tracey Boards — he runs the team that builds them.
Garret Tracey
Garret leads marketing and social media for Tracey Boards and has played a major role in introducing Carrooka to a rapidly growing audience around the world.
Crokinole fans may also know his voice. Garret provides commentary for the vast majority of the competitive crokinole matches published on our YouTube channel, helping bring the competitive side of the game to viewers around the world.
Whether he's behind the camera, behind the microphone, or at an event, Garret is a big part of how people discover and connect with both Crokinole and Carrooka.
Nolan Tracey
Nolan was the first of the three Tracey brothers to work in the family business and spent years helping build Tracey Boards before eventually moving on from the shop.
Crokinole is still very much part of his life. Nolan is a current board member of the National Crokinole Association and continues to grow the game through the Winnipeg Crokinole Club. He's also an accomplished competitive player, including podium finishes at the World Crokinole Championship Doubles alongside his brother Reid.
He may have left the shop, but he definitely hasn't left crokinole.
