Shuffleboard is a game for two players ore teams of two players each.
To play you need the following:
A clean and properly waxed board.
A set of pucks.
Object Of The Game:
To slide the discs into the scoring diagram on the opposite end of the board. Players (or team
members) play at opposite ends of the board, and games are played until one player (or team)
scores 15 points.
To Play:
Order of play and puck colore are determined by the flip of a coin. The winner of the flip may
choose “color” or the “hammer” (the last puck shot in a round), but not both. The player or team
without the hammer shoots first. Players alternate shooting until all pucks have been shot. Points
are counted and play continues from the opposite end. The team which scored points on the
previous round shoots first on the next round. If no points are scored on the preceding round, the
hammer changes. (I.e. the team that had the hammer during the round where no points were
scored must shoot first next round.
Play continues until one team reaches 15 points.
How To Keep Score:
Only one team scores i a round. The team which has their puck closest to the end of the board
(away from the shooter) scores. All of their pucks which are between the end of the board (away
from the shooter) and their opponents pucks which is closest to the end of the board are added
together for the score for that round.
A puck scores one point if it is between the short foul line and the “2” line.
