    For a positive integer n and a tree Tn on n vertices, we consider an unbiased Waiter-Client game WC(n, Tn) played on the complete graph Kn, in which Waiter’s goal is to force Client to build a copy of Tn. We prove that for every constant c < 1/3, if ∆(Tn) ≀ cn and n is sufficiently large, then Waiter has a winning strategy in WC(n, Tn). On the other hand, we show that there exist a positive constant câ€Č < 1/2 and a family of trees Tn with ∆(Tn) ≀ câ€Čn such that Client has a winning strategy in the WC(n, Tn) game for every n sufficiently large. We also consider the corresponding problem in the Client-Waiter version of the game.
