SETUP & RULES
HOW TO SET UP YOUR FLYBALL GAME
- Remove contents from the bags
- Choose a flat surface (or make one in the sand)
- With the runway facing up, slide the top of the runway into the groves of the bottom left side of the ramp until it reaches the top.
- Repeat on the other side
- Install the edge supports on each side of the runway for stability. The flat side of the edge supports should be on the top. Repeat until all 4 edge supports are installed.
- Use the target rings to measure the distance from the back of the runway. They should be set 3 ring lengths away (approximately 4').
HOW TO PLAY
- Flyball is best played with 2 people. Each person selects their color balls (teal or peach)
- Player 1 starts by standing at the start of the runway.
- Player 1 rolls one of their 3 balls up the ramp with an underhand motion and attempts to make the ball fly off the ramp and land it into the target.
- The target has 3 rings, corresponding to points.
- 3 points when landing in the small ring
- 2 points when landing in the middle ring
- 1 point when landing in the large ring
- 0 points for any ball that lands outside or bounces out of the target rings.
- Player 1 throws all three balls and leaves them where they land.
- Repeat with player 2.
- After player 2 throws their last ball, points are counted.
- Add up the points for player 1.
- Add up the points for player 2.
- Subtract the lower score from the higher score
- Repeat until one of the players reaches 21 points
EXAMPLE
- Player 1 scored 5 points (ball one: 3 points, ball two: 1 point, ball three: 1 point)
- Player 2 scored 2 points (ball one: 0 points, ball two: 2 points, ball three: 0 points)
- Since player 1 had the high score of the round, subtract player 2’s score of 2 from player 1’s score of 5.
- 5-2=3 points
- Player 1 is awarded 3 points for the round.
