ABSTRACT:
The present invention is specifically designed as an outdoor game apparatus for use in such areas as sandy beaches and grassy parks wherein the game is laid out on the ground surface and secured in place by peg members. The game consists of a group of cord members that are connected and woven together. When laid on the ground the cord members outline a game play surface, sometimes referred to as a game board where the ground surface itself is the board surface for the placement of game pieces. This game board is flexible and adapted to be secured in a fixed layout for playing a game such as backgammon, checkers or chess. A peripheral cord defines a quadrilateral playing area having a plurality of play sections to receive game pieces. Hold-down rings are attached to the peripheral cord and are adapted to receive pegs therein wherby the game is held on the ground for game play.
