FAQs
We will have questions that come up as we play, just remember we are all in this for a great cause, (Support Decatur FFA) and to have fun!
How long does my team have to get to the boards after my team is called?
How long does my team have to get to the boards after my team is called?
- 3 Minutes
- Your team forfeits the game. No substitute players allowed.
- We have to keep things moving for the sake of time, so each player needs to pay attention and be ready when it is their turn. If this becomes an issue, please bring it to our attention and that player may be put on the clock during his or her turn.
- A player from each team will pitch one washer and the closest to the hole or in the hole will start the game.
- The team that scored last, pitches first each time.
- This is both teams fault and the washer pitched counts.
- Behind the front of the washer board.
- You would get 6 points, 5 for making one and 1 for being closest.
- Your opponent does not get a point and you get 5 points.
- That washer is dead and comes off the board.
- If it pushes it closer and it stays or knocks it in the hole, it counts!
- If it stays on the board it is still in play, but you do not get 5 points.
- No!
- If your opponent has not pitched yet, they have the opportunity to pitch their washers and try to cancel out your points in this round. Example: your team pitches 4 washers and the last washer pitched goes in the hole. This puts your team at 23 points, now your opponent can pitch their washers. If they make one, it would cancel out 5 points from your score in that round (putting your score at 18).
- The points cancel out. If you need a measurement, please bring an official over for a measurement.
- Yes! Always pitch the same color for your team throughout the game.
