France was one of only three countries, along with the United States and Belgium[1], to hold a National Championship event in 1994. The inaugural winner, Bertrand Lestrée, earned a flight to the 1994 World Championships where he finished in second place. Tournaments were then held annually until 2011, and again in 2017 and 2018.[2][3] The winner of these events was named French Champion and headed the national team at that years' World Championship.

Between 2012 and 2016 the title French Champion was instead given to the French player with the highest amount of Pro Points in a particular Pro Tour season.

  • Between 1995 and 2000, and in 2007, teams had 4 players.[4]
  • Between 2001 and 2006, and 2008 to 2011 teams, consisted of three players. The two losing semi-finalists would play off for 3rd place. 4th place still received an invitation as an Alternate. (Italicised)
