The German Binding Championship has been held in the single binding carom variant since 1935 . The championship was held in different locations until 2004. From 2005 it will take place in an overall championship of all carom disciplines in the Hessian spa town of Bad Wildungen.

history

In no other Karambol discipline has the playing distance changed as often as in the cover. The records have been set for the longest distance of 200 points. The exception is the GD of 13.63 by Wolfgang Zenkner . But only two games up to 150 points were played. Therefore, the GD of 11.26, which Dieter Müller achieved over six games, should be rated higher. With Martin Horn (1997) and Wolfgang Zenkner (2009) two German binding world champions were also won.
