Target Toss

Source: Games For The Playground, Home, School And Gymnasium
Category: BEAN BAG AND OAT SACK GAMES





_10 to 60 players._

_Playground; seashore; gymnasium; schoolroom._

_Bean bags; stones; shells._

Three concentric circles should be drawn on the ground or floor, after
the idea of a target. Their size will depend somewhat on the skill of
the players, but for the youngest players the inner circle should be
not more than two feet in diameter and the outer circle six feet in
diameter. For those more skilled, smaller circles may be used. From
ten to thirty feet from the outer rim of the largest circle a
straight line is drawn on the ground, to serve as a throwing line.
Where there is a small number of players, all may use one target.
Where there is a large number, several targets should be drawn and the
players divided into as many groups. Each group has three bean bags,
or if out of doors, small blocks of wood, stones, or shells may be
used. Each player throws in turn, throwing each of the three bags or
other objects at each turn. The thrower stands with his toe on the
throwing line and tosses a bag toward the target. If the bag stops
within the center circle, it scores fifteen points; if between the
center circle and the next larger one, it scores ten points; and if
between the middle circle and the largest or outer one, it scores five
points. For very little children a bag that lands on a line may score
for the larger circle which it touches. For more expert players, a bag
landing on a line does not score at all. The player wins who has the
highest score in five rounds of the game.
