... Hey.... I've been the the WCC every year and it really is awesome. The playing area (arena surface) is full of crokinole players and spectators. There is...
Jason, it was nice to hear from someone who has actually attended the WCC. I would love to attend sometime in the future, but it is a bit of a trip from the...

I mentioned Crokinole to a French Canadian woman and she had never heard the word. I started describing the game, and she suddenly said, "Oh, sure. I've played...
OK, it's really at home (and I'm at work), but my new board came last night! I only got a few practice flicks in before bed, but I can't wait to play (which I...
I'm not trying to abuse this great list, but I'm selling a very fun dexterity game that I bought in Europe. Pleysr smart enough to love Crokinole may...
The Games Club of Maryland ran the Euroquest II last weekend near Baltimore Maryland. Carl and I dragged along a bunch of boards, and we held a pairs crokinole...

Good morning, We're having our 5th annual crokinole tournament this year at my office's Christmas party. I've been tasked with organizing it. The person who...
First, I recommend killing the 100 point rule and just going 4 rounds. If teams are tied, then go an additional 2 rounds. Going last is a significant...
We play at work during breaks and lunchtime. In order to make things move along we restrict the play to six shots per team. So whether you have 2, 3, or 4...
I guess I should have said that we have at least 5 tables to play on. Really I just need to know the time frame it takes to play a game. 20-25 minutes seems...
... on. ... That is my experience, but we play pretty deliberately. In a tournament, play seems to slow down a lot. Cutting the number or shots in half seems...
... In my very limited experience, the way Stan & Carl arranged the tourney at Euro Quest last month worked very, very well, and was very fairly done. Every...
On Wed, 08 Dec 2004 13:15:58 -0500, Joe Casadonte ... Good idea. Tournament scoring works like this: 2 points for winning a board 1 point each for tying a...
... They did that, plus: * each person leads once (i.e. 4 rounds) * count the # of 20's over all 4 rounds, to use as a tie-breaker Worked well. -- Regards, joe...
As Joe pointed out, my brother Carl and I ran a crokinole tournament at Euroquest a few weeks ago. We had eight teams. We set it up as two brackets of four,...
This sounds vaguely similar to the scoring rules of Curling. Larry ... They did that, plus: * each person leads once (i.e. 4 rounds) * count the # of 20's over...
Played 3P Crokinole for the first time yesterday, on a custom board, and when we went to play, we realized we had no idea how to do it, really. Do you go for...
... board, ... Here's the way we play 3P Crokinole: - You must hit any one opposing disc when shooting if available - Same rules about lying on or within the...

Hello everyone, I am quite new to the game of crokinole, but am already quite taken by it. I am already considering signing up for the world championship...
Good afternoon. I was planning on goning myself but the CSSRA rowing championships are the same weekend (terrible timing). Unfortuneately my wife would not...
I'm considering joining in all the fun too. I'm not sure if i'm competative enough or not... is there an online crokinole game we can play, maybe suggest to ...
My 5-hole Crokinole board (thanks, Carl!) finally got play this weekend, and the game is terrific! There are four holes in the 10 point area, and any disk...
Hi, My name is Tom Mechler and I live in Vermont which I guess is close enough to Canada that this game has slipped over the border. I was introduced to the...

Hi Tom - I would recommend checking out www.hilinski.net . Beautiful boards at a resonable price (about $150 inc. shipping), although admittedly that is...
Good morning. The best comment I could make is "that any board is better than no board". That being said there is an amazing appeal that goes along with owning...
