ABSTRACT:
A game for at least two players wherein one of the players manually propels a disk-shaped projectile so as to glide the projectile through one of at least three hoops positioned in a common plane and mounted between the players such that the projectile may be caught by the other of the players after the projectile has glided through one of the hoops. The support structure for the hoops may include either one or two vertically extending legs, each of which includes L-shaped brackets at its lower end which function to hold the legs in an upright position. The three hoops are so arranged that at least two hoops abut at least one other hoop and the upper end portion of the supporting structure. The hoops are mounted at a predetermined level above the playing surface, and the hoops are of different diameters to provide varying target areas. The hoops are accorded point values that decrease as the areas of the hoops are increased. In the preferred embodiment the object of the game is to score exactly 21 points, with the hoops being provided with varying sized areas having point values of 1, 2 and 3.
