Welcome to Backgammon Germany
The Rhein-Neckar Cup was created in Mannheim as early as 2003.
which is one of the most successful regional tournaments in Germany.
Since 2012, the two passionate backgammon players Volker Sonnabend and Rainer Witt have been organizing
the International German Backgammon Championships , which have now become one of the largest backgammon events in Europe, with more than 200 national and international participants.
A year later, the Lions Cup was added, which traditionally takes place in Bad Dürkheim. We are supported on the Lions tour by the casino and the Kurpark Hotel in Bad Dürkheim.

Changed
Date
Damit wir schon im nächsten Jahr unser Backgammon-Turnier an diesem attraktiven Ort ausrichten können, mussten wir den angekündigten Termin an Pfingsten verlegen. Der neue Termin ist jetzt das verlängerte Wochenende um den Feiertag am 01. Mai, der nächstes Jahr auf einen Freitag fällt.
In order to be able to hold our backgammon tournament at this attractive location next year, we had to postpone the announced date at Pentecost. The new date is now the long weekend around the public holiday on May 1, which is on a Friday next year.
The 14th Lions Cup will take place from
September 3rd - 6th, 2026
in the Kurpark Hotel and Casino
Bad Dürkheim instead.
The Lions tour will stop in Bad Dürkheim again next year.
The Kurpark Hotel is, as always, looking forward to our arrival.
