The 14th women's pétanque world championship will take place from October 4th to 6th, 2013 in Montauban in the south of France . It is played in the Triplette formation with a substitute. Each team can therefore consist of up to four women.

At the same time as the Triplet World Championship, the 7th Women's World Championship will take place in the Tir de précision , for which each participating nation may nominate a tireur .

41 nations take part in both competitions. The host France and the reigning world champion Tunisia are allowed to provide two teams in the Triplette, so that 43 teams play for this title.

Both disciplines are organized by the world association FIPJP .

Triplets

43 teams from 41 nations take part in the triplet competition. Each team may replace one player and the substitute player once during a game. After this no more players may be exchanged. Because of the mode , each team has at least six games ahead of them.

Attendees

The list of participating nations was published a good month before the start of the World Cup. As in 2011, fewer than the maximum of 48 teams take part.

Participating players

All teams announced their World Cup line-up no later than two weeks before the start of the tournament.

The DPV , vice world champion in 2004, nominated the following four players for the tournament: Carolin Birkmeyer (VFPS Osterholz-Scharmbeck / Lower Saxony), Susanne Fleckenstein (BC Konstanz / Baden-Württemberg), Muriel Hess (PCB Horb / Baden-Württemberg) and Indra Waldbüßer (BC Stuttgart / Baden-Württemberg).

The defending champions also start in the same line-up as in 2011 as Tunisia B.

mode

As in 2011, the competition will be held in two phases:

Phase 1: - Swiss system

The 32 participants play 5 preliminary rounds according to the Swiss system, at the end of which the 16 best teams remain in the tournament. When determining the ranking positions, first the victories, then the Buchholz points and finally the ball difference are considered. The remaining teams play after the preliminary round in the so-called Coupe de nations, the "B tournament".

During the preliminary round, the game is played with a time limit of 1 hour + 2 recordings .

Phase 2: - KO system

In both the main tournament and the coupe de nations, the players in the final are then sought in the eighth, quarter and semifinals. In the Coupe de nations, a cadrage is played before the round of 16, which reduces the field of participants to 16.

The game is played according to a tree structure , so that the first and second can only meet in the final after the preliminary round.

Time schedule

One day before the official start of the competition, the participants will be welcomed and the first round will be drawn.

A general assembly will be held on Friday morning before the sporting part of the World Cup begins.

The future world champion has to play 9 games in three days, for the 41 participants in precision shooting there are up to five exercises of 20 shots each.

There are two award ceremonies on Saturday (Tir) and on Sunday evening (Triplette), as the end of the title fights, all participants, officials and referees are invited to a gala dinner.

Swiss system

With the same mode as in the 2011 World Cup, all teams were guaranteed 5 games.

After the 5 rounds, the first 16 teams reach the round of 16, while the remaining 27 teams continue to play in the Coupe des nations, the "B-WM".

In the preliminary round there is a time limit (60min. + 2 recordings).

Since 43 teams are participating, one team receives a bye in each round.

Teams that have already played against each other cannot meet again in the preliminary round.

Final round

In the second round, Germany met as a preliminary round 14. in Madagascar. In the beginning, the German women held up well against the African top team and the game was open, but in the end the Madagassins prevailed 13: 5. For Germany this meant a ninth place in the total bill.

France A with the multiple World Tire Champion Angelique Papon in the team was eliminated in the round of 16. They lost 5:13 to record world champions Thailand.

After surviving the preliminary round undefeated, Spain surprisingly lost against Belgium with a fiver at 8: 8.

In the quarter-finals, Thailand had to fight Madagascar for a long time before reaching the semifinals for the seventh time in a row at a World Cup. The victory over Belgium gave Cambodia their first medal at a women's World Cup. Canada reached a semi-final again after 19 years, France B remained the last European hope in the tournament after defeating Denmark.

Canada suffered their only defeat at the World Cup in the semi-finals, with a clear 2:13 against hosts France. By defeating Cambodia, Thailand made it into a World Cup final for the seventh time in a row.

For the third time there was the duel between France and Thailand in a World Cup final and for the third time the Asians won. The record world champions won their sixth title with a 13: 7 win.

Tir de precision

In the Tir de précision (zD: Precision Shooting ) there is one representative from each nation. Muriel Hess started for Germany. The defending champion Hanta Francine Randriambahiny (Madagascar) is not there. In the preliminary round, all 30 athletes shot a complete round of 20 shots. The first 4 of the preliminary round reached the quarter-finals directly, the Tirure in places 5–21 went into the Repêchage, the second chance in which the best four also qualified for the quarter-finals. From the quarterfinals on, the knockout system, Tireur versus Tireur, continued.

Preliminary round

The best result of the preliminary round was achieved by Sandrine Hurumanu (Tahiti) with 34 points, 15 of which she scored with the last studio, the Sauschuss. Muriel Hess reached the Repêchage in twelfth place with 20 points, as did the Swiss Karin Rudolfs (19). The Austrian Isabella Schimak, on the other hand, was eliminated with seven points.

Repêchage

Muriel Hess scored a good 38 points and reached the quarter-finals in second place. Only the Cambodian Leng Ke was better with 46 points.

The three-time world champion Angelique Papon from France was eliminated, as were the other former world champions Yolanda Matarranz (Spain) and Thonsgri Thamakord (Thailand).

With the same number of points, Karin Rudolfs from Switzerland only missed the quarter-finals because of fewer “fives” compared to the Madagascan.

Muriel Hess reached the semi-finals after beating the Slovenian Tatjana Seruga, which she just lost to the Tunisian Mouna Beji. Bronze is nevertheless the greatest success of a German female shooter at world championships.

The victory went to Keng Le from Cambodia, who never scored less than 27 points in 5 rounds and achieved the best performance of the tournament with 46.
