6 – When a score is made, the player whose corner the ball fell into serves the
next shot.
7 – Whenever one player’s scoring peg is down to zero, the round is over.
Each player scores the amount of points remaining in his scoring area.
All players then mark their score on a sheet of paper to keep track. All
pegs are returned back to the five hole and a new round begins.
8 – After five rounds, the player with the highest score wins. In the case of
a tie, another round is played by only the players who tied for the win.
SERVING THE BALL:
Any of the ways listed on how to serve the ball are legal. You should use
the method that you find the easiest and best for you.
A– Hold the ball above the board
and drop it into the center of
the game board.
B– Hold the handle (as shown to
the right) with the ball in the
hole. Twist the handle to pitch
the ball forward into play.
C– Hold the handle and position
the paddle facing forward.
Place the ball on the hole.
Twist the handle and drop
the ball from the paddle
into play.
RULES FOR 2 OR 3 PLAYERS:
If two players are to compete, they
choose opposite corner pockets to
defend. The two unused pockets are
covered with the printed boards
supplied with the game. Without
removing the paddles, slide the
tabs on the printed board into the
open slots on the playing surface.
The boards will block the unused
pockets and keep the ball in the
playing area. For three players,
only use one board and block the
unused pocket.
SERVE B
Insert tabs into
the open slots.
Each player takes the scoring
peg that matches their paddle
color and places it into the hole
marked five in the scoring area
on the game board.

GAME OBJECTIVE:
The object of the game is to keep the ball away from your pocket and shoot it
into an opponent’s pocket. A point scores against you each time the ball drops
into your pocket. Four players may play at once (See “Rules for 2 or 3 Players”
for additional instructions if playing with less than 4 players).
RULES:
1 – All players start with 5 points and mark the five hole (in their scoring area
behind the pocket) with a scoring peg.
2 – The youngest player begins by “SERVING” the ball into the playing area
(See “SERVING THE BALL” for serving rules).
3 – After the ball is served into play, each player uses his paddle to block
the entry of the ball into his pocket and strike the ball away by using a
twisting motion of the handle.
4 – If the ball falls into your pocket, either through your own fault or from an
opponent’s shot, you lose 1 point. Move your scoring peg down by one
number in your scoring area.
5 – If the ball flies out of the playing area, either while a player is serving or
during a volley, the player causing the ball to fly out is penalized 1 point.
