13rd Domino World Champion 2007: Alex JossThis year the number of participants of the previous year was reached again: altogether 80 players from six countries played in Norway, Germany, Slovakia and in Switzerland to win the world champion title. For the second time in FIDO history the title was won by a participant of JUVENTE’s winter camp in Bielefeld – of which also Ole Stein and Frank Fehring were among the first ten. The domino strongholds Garbsen and Grenchen achieved with Matthias Nolting and Andrea Krebs the ranks 2 and 3, as well as with Bino Nolting rank 4 and the newcomer Marc Massaro rank 5, whereby the latter became the best new player of the world championship. The current world champion had learned the domino game at the EGTYF camp 2004 in Slovakia for the first time. The occasional player succeeded in winning two of the three world championship rounds – both with large lead –, which finally helped her to get the title. The central evaluation this year took place in Zvolen in Slovakia, where ten participants of a seminar of the European youth organization ACTIVE with the topic »Minorities and Gender: Equality Reality?« joined the world championship. Some of them learned to play the game at the world championship for the first time. 8 of the 13 past world champions are female, with which the equal rights seem to be accomplished at least in the domino world. |
