30th Domino World Championship 2024
The FIDO Domino World Championship is held annually since 2012 in the period from 27 to 31 December (before that on a fixed day within this period). The games are played in decentralised locations where participants form groups of 5 people.
Ricki Nolting is Domino World Champion 2024!
This year, the world championship title went to Garbsen once again: three world champions bear the name Nolting and now a world champion has been added with the same name. Garbsen therefore remains a constant in the domino world.
Vice World Champion was Constantin Klee from the Swiss domino stronghold of Basel, who currently lives in Zurich. His father, the Swiss domino veteran Alex Klee, came in third.
The leading FIDO nations were all represented again: 25 players from Norway, Germany and Switzerland were there again.
Defending champion and 2023 world champion Torsten Fornefeld came in second among the Garbsen participants in 11th place. The best Norwegian was Marte Lauvhjell in 5th place. This time, places 21 and 22 were so close that the FLADUB number after the decimal point was the deciding factor for positioning: Andreas Marienborg achieved 539.943 FLADUB, while Hege Lofthus was close behind with 539.6.
We warmly congratulate all title holders and thank everyone who participated!
