Germans claim another World title - in Marbles
- 5 years ago
*** LOUD SOUND WARNING ***
The Teutonic team 1st MC Erzebirge walked away with their second successive title at the World Marbles Championship at the annual Easter event.
The hotly-contested event saw 60 teams from across the globe to gather at The Greyhound pub in Tinsley Green, West Sussex, for the annual Good Friday festivities.
Each team has six members going head-to-head – with the winner being the first to knock 25 out of 49 marbles from a six-foot concrete ring with their dobber.
But the German team have been accused by one local of not adhering to the rules – because they practice.
