Resources

Materials
Bean Bags, a different colour for each team
A target (something circular that will lie flat on the floor) or a printed target face
Some thing to mark the centre if you are making your own target (called the button)
Something to mark the throwing line

Instructions

Preparation
Allow 2 teams to each target
Clear space in an indoor or outdoor setting.
Set up the targets - if you are using a target face the 'Bulls Eye' is the centre or button
If you have made your own target then use something to mark the centre, this is known as the button

Implementation
1. Give each participant a bean bag in their team colour.
2. Participants should line up behind a throwing line, which can be any predetermined distance from the ring that is suitable for the setting (10 feet
minimum is recommended).
3. One after another, participants slide or underhand toss their bean bag, aiming for the centre of the ring called the button.
Teams should alternate throws.
4. Participants can knock previously thrown bean bags out of their current locations using their own bean bag.
5. The scoring is similar to curling. Once all individuals or teams have participated, score the round by awarding a point to the closest bean bag to
the button.
If a team has two bean bags closer to the button than its opponent, it gets two points, and so on.
6. Complete as many rounds as desired, totaling scores for each round to
determine a winner.
