Rules of the Game

"The Simple Rules"

  • Games can be played 1-on-1 or 2-on-2.

  • Four quoits are used, two for each team. Two boards are needed.

  • Set the boards 18 feet apart from center pin to center pin.

  • The throwing alternates between teams. One quoit at a time.

  • Points are scored when a quoit lands on the board and is closer to the pin than the other quoits. This earns 1 point. If a quoit is thrown to ring the pin ("a ringer"), 3 points is awarded. If no quoits remain on the board after all 4 quoits are thrown, no points are awarded. It is possible to have one team have two quoits closer to the pin than the opposition. In this case, 2 points are awarded. Also, if one team scores a ringer and has its other quoit closer than the opposition, 4 points is awarded.

  • Game is played until one team reaches 21, winning by at least two.
