ABSTRACT:
A paddle and puck game is provided in which each player is equipped with two paddles but must defend three goals. The playing equipment comprises an open tray, which provides a playing surface and opposite goals. The playing surface is marked with a center line to divide the available ranges of activity of the opposing players to their own separate courts. Near each end of the tray the side walls are slotted, removably to receive goal strips. Each goal strip generally includesthree scoring slots of different scoring values in its lower border. Goal strips of varying difficulty may be provided to accommodate players of differing levels of ability, and to permit goals of unequal difficulty to be used simultaneously at opposite ends for handicapping purposes. The goal spaces behind the slots are partitioned off from one another so that a scoring puck will generally be appropriately trapped, for avoiding disagreement as to which goal slot it passed through. Angular deflecting pieces are fixed behind the goals to avoid direct rebounding to a free area of a scoring puck. The lower margins of the side walls and the goal strips, as well as the lateral face portions of the puck, are desirably coated with a rubbery material such as neoprene, to deaden the sound and to increase the liveliness of rebounding of the puck.
