Bagball
Object: Try and be the first player to reach 300 points by landing your beanbags in the various nets.
Setup: Position the Bagball side of the cloth facing toward you (as shown to the right). Move the scoring markers on the arch to zero. The score marker on the side is not used in this game.
Game Play: Bagball may be played with either 2 or 4 players divided into 2 teams. Teams pick a color of bags to use throughout the game and position themselves 10 - 15 feet away from the game board.
The game consists of rounds. During each round, players take turns tossing their bags at the game board (If playing with 4 players, teams alternate their players each round).
If the bag successfully lands into the net the player scores the value marked. A round is not finished until all 6 bags have been tossed.
At the end of the round, scores are totaled and players move the scoring markers on the game board to reflect their total score. The first player to reach 300 points is the winner. In the event of a tie, players toss one additional bag. The player who scores the highest number of points on that toss is the winner. If there continues to be a tie, continue tossing one bag until a winner is determined.
Advanced Play: For a more competitive game, players may cancel each other’s bags during the round. Teams only score the difference between the highest and lowest score for the round. Example, Player one lands 50 points worth of bags and player two lands 40 points. Player one then scores 10 for the round (50 – 40 = 10).
IMPORTANT: To change games, flip the game board
over and rotate the legs to the opposite side.
Big League Bagball
Object: Score the most runs in 9 innings by landing beanbags in the various nets to score runs.
Setup: Position the Big League Bagball side
of the cloth facing toward you (as shown to the right). Move the scoring markers to zero
and the inning marker to one. Decide who is
going first. They are the batter and will use the 4 square bags. The fielder will get the 2 round bean bags.
Game Play: Big League Bagball may be played with either 2 or 4 players divided into 2
teams. Players position themselves 10 - 15 feet away from the game board.
The game consists of innings. During an inning, each player gets to be on offense (as a batter) and defense (as a fielder). The batter begins and tosses one of the four square bags at the game board. If a bag successfully lands in a net a hit is awarded and base runners move/advance based on the following:
•Single Net = 1 runner on first base.
•Double Net = 1 runner on second base.
•Triple Net = 1 runner on third base.
•Home Run Net = 1 run scored plus 1 run for any runners on base.
Runners advance bases when the batter lands a hit. The number of bases advanced is equal to the number of bases the hitter receives. For example, a batter has a runner on second base and then lands a bag for a single on his next throw. The runner on second advances to third and the hitter has a new base runner on first base. A bag that lands in a net marked “out,” or misses the game board completely is an out against the batter. The batter throws one bag after another until he either runs out of bags to throw or receives 3 outs.
The opponent (fielder) takes the two round bags and can try to cancel out any of the plays that happen on offense. After any throw, EXCEPT a home run, the fielder may step in to cancel out the batter’s hit. To do this the fielder must throw a bag successfully into one of the “out” nets. If the fielder is successful, the batter’s play is canceled and an out is given to the batter. No runners advance. For example, the batter has a runner on second base and then lands a bag for a single on his next throw. The fielder steps in and throws a bag for an out. That “single” base runner’s play has been cancelled and the batter now has an OUT ( The runner on second does not advance to third).
After a batter receives 3 outs or throws all 4 of their bags, the offense and defense switch and repeat the previous steps. When both players have had a chance at offense and defense, the inning is over and a new one begins. After each inning, move the “inning marker” on the right side to the next inning until all nine have been played.After nine innings the game
