Carrom Striker pieces are used to push the carrom men and the queen across the board to the pockets.

Players who are tied select a colour and are only allowed to pocket carrom men of the other colour on the rebound. We carry the largest selection of high quality carrom products in North America including products by Surco, Siscaa, Synco and Precise. The United States Carrom Association reports on competitions in the US and Canada and has a player ranking list as of the last tournament. State-level competitions were being held in the different states of India during the early part of the twentieth century.

To get queen points, one needs to put a carrom man of any colour in the same pocket after the queen on the same or a subsequent strike in the same turn. The edges of the playing surface are bounded by bumpers of wood, and the underside of each pocket is covered by a net which is 10 cm2 or larger. High Quality Synco Strikers Synco are the main brand in the world of Carrom and sponsor the Indian team.

If you pocket your opponent’s last coin, your own coin, the queen and the striker then you will lose by 3 points. For storage, this large carrom striker can be placed into this custom built cover case which prevents damage. Pure White material is used in this strikerIt has a metallic coin inside which gives you balance and good stroke. This is used when there are several pieces around your base line making it difficult to position your hand for the normal long finger style.

While trying to cover the queen, if you pocket only the striker by a proper stroke, then the queen shall be taken out and placed back. 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. When at least one piece of that player’s color has been placed in their pocket, they can only pocket and cover the queen. 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.To push the Carrom men into the pot, you must use the middle finger to forcefully release the striker. One Carrom board with its surface made of glass is still available in one of the palaces in Patiala, India. 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.
