Product Information

Serious carrom tournaments may have begun in Sri Lanka in 1935; by 1958, both India and Sri Lanka had formed official federations of carrom clubs, sponsoring tournaments and awarding prizes. Carrom follows similar "strike and pocket" games, like pool, with its use of rebounds, angles, and obstruction of opponent's carrom pieces. Some of the top brands that we stack are Synco Genius Carrom Striker and other superior-quality strikers. Carrom has two pieces known as the “striker pieces,” nine black pieces, nine white pieces, one red piece (also known as “the queen”), and nine white pieces.

The main work of this organisation is to promote the game of Carrom throughout the UK and ensure the participation of UK players in all major international championships. If a player sinks their last piece before the queen, they lose the board, three points and one point for each of their opponent's pieces left. The Ashwin Pool Ball Striker is made from phenolic resin, the same material that billiard balls are made from, and has a thin profile and very slick surface. When placing the striker on the board to shoot, it must touch both baselines, either covering the end circle completely or not touching it at all.

One carrom board with its surface made of glass is still available in one of the palaces in Patiala, India. Games similar to carrom include pichenotte, pitchnut, crokinole, Chapayev, novuss and button football. This means that, as in pool and snooker, it is possible for a player to pot all his/her pieces and cover the queen from the start of the game without the opponent being given the chance to shoot. The dimensions of the standardized game is a 29 inches (74 cm) square playing surface on a board of lacquered plywood.Carrom is a tabletop game of Indian origin in which players flick discs, attempting to knock them to the corners of the board. This style is similar to the Index Finger style except that instead of putting downward pressure on the index finger, the thumb is used to hold back the index finger before flicking. Shooting styles can vary between players, but all shots must involve flicking the striker and not pushing it. Semi-square, with a smooth top edge, this striker has a great feel and plays particularly well with starch powder. The queen and other Carrom coins are hit across the board and into the pockets with the help of the striker.
