Carrom Association

I have tried to find out if left handed people can play Carrom as well as right handers.
From talking to people at various events I have to say yes they can.
So how many are champions?
Proven answers, please, not some story of your uncle who had a friend, who’s next door neighbour’s son’s teacher was a champion some time in the 1960s.

If you have evidence, either a photo or a newspaper clipping send it into us.

It will help fill in the gaps in the history of the game. Thanks.

If you have the time take a quick look at the following articles 1 and 2.

The Carrom (pt 1) Championships (pt 2) took place in Delhi on 17th to 21st November. At the tournament which was held at the Tivoli Garden Resort more than 70 players from 17 countries took part.

The Indian National Carrom Team, cleared the board of all competition. (no pun intended)

In a fast and furious game Yogesh Pardeshi beat Ravinder Gaud his teammate in the finals, 25-15, 25-16. and became the men’s champion.

The Indian women also played well and in the final I. Ilavazhaki beat Ayesha Mohammad to claim the women’s title.
