Description

• Since the game is a miniaturised version of Skittles, the game is played in the same way.
  
  
• A coin should be tossed to see who takes the first turn.
  
  
• The skittles are only reset at the beginning of a turn or when all nine have been knocked over.
  
  
• Three throws per turn are allowed so that the maximum score in one go is twenty-seven.
  
  
• The ball must be start its revolution around the outside of the board so that it hits the skittles upon its return towards the player.
  
  
• The ball is permitted to go around the pole only once for each throw - the player should catch it as it returns so as to prevent it going round a second time.
  
  
• Usually, the objective is to be the first player to reach a score of one hundred and one although, if a cribbage board is being used to score, the game would be played to one hundred and twenty one.
